Speak at a hearing:
Speakers must submit a Witness registration form. TDI asks forms be submitted at least two business days before the hearing. If you do not wish to speak, there is no need to register.
The moderator will call your name when it’s your turn to speak.
If you need accommodations, email HumanResources@tdi.texas.gov or call 512-676-6112.
Note: Insurance Code Section 1301.00565 says certain out-of-network physicians and hospitals may decline to be identified by name at the hearing. TDI will make good faith efforts to not identify such speakers by name.
Submit written information:
TDI will consider written information relating to a waiver request. The deadline to submit is one week after the hearing date. Send it to NetworkWaivers@tdi.texas.gov. Include the SERFF number of the waiver request in the subject line.
For all other communications, email MCQA@tdi.texas.gov.
