If a Provider or Facility is not a contracted Provider, the Provider/Facility must contact the El Paso Health Contracting and Credentialing Department regarding set up.
Out of Network Providers may submit the Provider Demographic Form, W-9 Form, and Texas Provider Identifier (TPI) Letter via email to
Contracting_Dept@elpasohealth.com or by fax to

To be reimbursed for services rendered to Medicaid Members, Provider must be enrolled in Texas Medicaid.
If an Out of Network Provider does not have a TPI number, the provider will not be eligible for reimbursement for services to a member participating in the STAR Medicaid Program.
An Out of Network Provider must notify the El Paso Health Contracting and Credentialing Department of the TPI assignment through a formal written notification which may be the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) approval letter.
Out of Network Providers are subject to non-participating provider authorization and reimbursement guidelines.
