The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has announced enhancements to the Texas Unified License Information Portal (TULIP), a web-based licensure system for long-term care providers and licensees. The first phase of implementation will focus on Nursing Facility Administrators (NFAs), allowing them to complete all licensing and application functions online. TULIP will make the licensure process more efficient and convenient, enabling electronic payments and providing immediate access to licensure information. The current NFA online licensing system was shut down on February 11, 2022, and the enhanced TULIP system will go live on February 28, 2022. NFAs must use TULIP for all application activities starting from this date. Applications not approved prior to the shutdown will be electronically transitioned to TULIP. A user manual and training will be provided on the NFA webpage.
