Texas Medicaid
Occupational therapists must be enrolled according to their specific licensure. A licensed therapy assistant is not eligible to enroll as a therapy provider.
Enrollment in Texas Medicaid comes before any Medicaid managed care plan can enroll you; each plan then contracts and credentials separately.
Licensure
Occupational therapists are licensed by the Executive Council of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy Examiners (ECPTOTE).
