The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) has issued Information Letter No. 2022-31, reminding healthcare providers to prepare for the upcoming Fiscal year 2022 Fee-for-Service Claims Billing Closeout on August 31, 2022. Providers must promptly submit claims for unbilled services to be paid by HHSC. They should ensure that billing is current and resolve any claim-related issues within the 12-month filing limitation. Providers must also review their Remittance & Status (R&S) reports for any invalid recoupments and report them to state office staff. Claims rebilled after the August cutoff date will be considered miscellaneous claims. Miscellaneous claims under $50,000 and less than eight years old are paid on a first-come, first-served basis. Providers should contact the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership for questions about the R&S report and report invalid recoupments to HHSC Provider Recoupments & Holds.
