A pharmacy provider with a current license or registration with the Texas State Board of Pharmacy, or is licensed under the laws of another state and is free from any pharmacy board restriction, may apply to become a Texas Medicaid pharmacy provider.
Pharmacy providers must enroll with HHSC through the Provider Enrollment and Management System (PEMS) before providing outpatient prescription services and participating in any managed care network. MCOs must allow any pharmacy provider willing to accept the terms and conditions of their contract to enroll in their network. Pharmacy providers should contact the client's specific MCO to participate in Medicaid or CHIP managed care networks.
