Action Required
Immediately: Texas providers must register in the State of Texas Electronic Provider System (STEPS) via IAMOnline to access required Medicaid cost reports that opened March 2, 2026. Verify that your Primary Entity Contact (PEC) email address in PEMS matches the email used for STEPS registration - HHSC cannot make this update for you. Complete mandatory cost report training and submit applicable cost reports based on your service types. Contact TMHP at (800) 925-9126 for PEMS issues or use STEPS live support at 1-737-86-STEPS for system problems.
