On September 1, 2025, the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) Long-Term Care (LTC) Online Portal (LTCOP) transitioned from the Resource Utilization Group (RUG) to the Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) Long-Term Care methodology for nursing facility (NF) daily care reimbursement.

TMHP has updated the following user guides and training material to reflect the PDPM implementation:

  • LTC User Guide for Hospice Providers
  • LTC User Guide for Community Services Waiver Programs
  • LTC User Guide for Managed Care Organizations (MCOs)
  • LTC Community Services Waiver Programs Computer-Based Training (CBT)

New LMS users can access materials and take courses immediately after they register. Providers can always access CBTs and additional training materials on the LMS.
