Tex. Gov't Code Section 532.0061
Alignment of Medicaid and Medicare Diabetic Equipment and Supplies Written Order Procedures

(a)

The commission shall review Medicaid forms and requirements regarding written orders for diabetic equipment and supplies to identify variations between permissible Medicaid ordering procedures and ordering procedures available to Medicare providers.

(b)

To the extent practicable and in conformity with Chapter 157 (Authority of Physician to Delegate Certain Medical Acts), Occupations Code, and Chapter 483 (Dangerous Drugs), Health and Safety Code, after the commission conducts a review under Subsection (a), the commission or executive commissioner, as appropriate, shall modify only Medicaid forms, rules, and procedures applicable to orders for diabetic equipment and supplies to provide for an ordering system that is comparable to the Medicare ordering system for diabetic equipment and supplies. The ordering system must permit a diabetic equipment or supplies supplier to complete forms by hand or enter medical information or supply orders electronically into a form as necessary to provide the information required to dispense diabetic equipment or supplies.

(c)

A diabetic equipment and supplies provider may bill and collect payment for the provider’s services if the provider has a copy of the form that meets the requirements of Subsection (b) and is signed by a medical provider licensed in this state to treat diabetic patients. Additional documentation may not be required.
