Frequently Asked Questions and Grace Period for the Senate Bill 809/Rider 143 Report

Last updated on

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) has created a list of frequently asked questions with common questions on the Senate Bill (S.B.) 809/Rider 143 Report. The document should answer most questions a provider may have regarding the completion of the report.

In addition, HHSC is granting a “grace period” to help providers come into compliance if they fail to meet any deadlines between October 1, 2021, and November 30, 2021. Though the deadlines to report will not change, HHSC will not take any actions against a provider as long as the provider submits all the required reports due between October 1, 2021, and November 30, 2021.

The grace period ends December 1, 2021.
