Using Submit Form and Use as Template Options on IPC Renewals

Due to the Home and Community-based Services (HCS) and Texas Home Living (TxHmL) rate changes effective September 1, 2023, providers and local intellectual and developmental disability authorities (LIDDAs) are advised to use the Submit Form option on Individual Plan of Care (IPC) renewals.

When to Use Submit Form Instead of Use as Template

Use Submit Form instead of Use as Template under these conditions:

• There have been rate changes or enhancements.
• A provider or financial management services agency (FMSA) has been removed, added, or changed.
• The form is not autofilling with the most current information, and all other forms (e.g., transfers or individual updates) are correctly processed and in Processed/Complete status.

Complete Related Forms Prior to Selecting Use as Template

Before using the Use as Template option, ensure that all related forms are correctly processed and marked as Processed/Complete. For more information, contact the LTC Help Desk at 800-626-4117 (select option 1).
