If you’re interested in the statewide Medicaid Drug Utilization Review Program, you may want to apply to be a member of the Drug Utilization Review Board. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission executive commissioner will appoint members to the board to serve a term expiring Aug. 31, 2027.
Applications are due by 11:59 p.m., June 9.
HHSC will consider applicants' qualifications, background and interest in serving on the board and will try to choose board members who represent the diversity of all Texans. For this reason, HHSC considers applicants' ethnicity, gender and geographic location.
- Please review the application letter (PDF) to find out who the board is seeking as representatives and if you qualify.
- After reviewing the application letter, and verifying you meet the qualifications for at least one category, click on the application to apply to be on the board.
- Applicants must complete and submit the Drug Utilization Review Board Annual Disclosure (HHS Form 1349).
A board member must regularly take part in board meetings and other meetings as needed. Board meetings are held about once every three months in Austin or at the call of the presiding officer. To the extent permitted by the current state budget, a board member may be repaid for their travel expenses to and from meetings if money is available and in accordance with the HHSC Travel Policy.
