Why do I need this bond?

Surety bonds are required of all Texas Medicaid providers in the state, pursuant to Title 1 Texas Administrative Code § 352.15. These bonds ensure companies, agencies, and health providers with patients who use Medicaid as an insurance method do not have any uncollected overpayments due to Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

If a Medicaid provider fails to pay the state or overcharges the state for Medicaid, the bond protects the state from any resulting financial loss up to the full penal sum of the bond.

What’s the fine print?

Texas Medicaid provider bonds are continuous until canceled and must be renewed annually for as many years as the Medicaid provider wishes to maintain a license. The bond allows for the surety or principal to cancel the bond at any point during the term by providing 30 days’ written notice of cancellation to the Health and Human Services Commission.

Per the terms of the bond, the surety will be liable for uncollected overpayments that occurred during the term of the bond for two years after the bond’s expiration or cancellation date.
