How to Apply for the Texas HCS Program

About Us: Our Services

Applicants are placed on interest lists on a first-come, first-served basis. Allocations are based on available funding. People who have been on the interest lists the longest are enrolled first. When a person's name comes to the top of the list, he or she will be contacted by an state office or Local Intellectual or Developmental Disability Authority representative.

HHSC received approval from the 87th Texas Legislature (2021, Regular Session) to serve additional persons from the Medicaid interest lists. Senate Bill 1 provides authority for HHSC to spend an additional $76.9 million in general revenue funds to address the interest lists.

If you think you or someone you know may be eligible for the Texas HCS program, you should contact your Local IDD Authority (LIDDA), which is the lead agency in your area responsible for HCS. A list of LIDDAs can be found on the HHSC website.
