NOTICE TO PROVIDERS
June 2010 - LMHAs are finalizing their local network development plans for the 2010 cycle. If you submit a Provider Inquiry Form now, LMHAs will not be able to integrate the information into their planning documents. You will, however, be able to participate in any procurement conducted as a result of the local planning process. The schedule for procurement will be described in the local plans.
Providers who are interested in providing mental health services in one or more of the LMHA service areas are directed to select the link of that LMHA from the list of participating LMHAs.
Using the Provider Inquiry Form, potential providers submit a description of their qualifications, including their experience as it relates to the same or similar services and populations defined in the RDM service packages. Information submitted by interested providers will be posted on the appropriate LMHA web page(s).
This is a list of providers who have indicated their possible interest in providing certain services in the area served by a particular LMHA.
Submitting Completed Provider Inquiry Forms
Completion of the Provider Inquiry Form (MS Word) indicates your interest in providing services for one or more Local Mental Health Authorities (LMHAs).
Please review the information about each LMHA before completing the form. In making your selections, remember that the LMHAs you choose will be contacting you to schedule a follow-up meeting. Narrowing your focus from the start can reduce the time and effort you and the LMHAs need to invest later in the process.
Applicants must be qualified, credentialed and capable of providing services according to the Resiliency and Disease Management (RDM) requirements.
Information provided on this form will be posted to applicable Department of State Health Services’ (DSHS) Local Network Planning and Development web page(s).
After posting, LMHAs and other interested stakeholders, including the public, will be able to review the information you provide on this form.
Completing this form does not in any way commit the LMHA to procure your services, and DSHS will have no role in arranging for your services to be procured by the LMHA.
Refer to the list of LMHAs for a list of counties served by each local mental health authority.
Refer to RDM Service Requirements and Other Standards for a list of service package definitions
When complete, return the form via email to LPND@dshs.state.tx.us. Please include the name of the organization in the subject line, and contact information in the body or signature of the e-mail message.
