Superior, PCP Change Request Form
If you attended the Superior Meet and Greet in June, you may remember the discussion about helping our patients change their Primary Care Provider (PCP).
One of the links below provides a downloadable copy of Superior’s PCP Change Request Form, which was discussed during the meeting. You can use this form in your office whenever a member needs to change their PCP.
To save time, you may even want to pre-complete the top section for each PCP in your practice. Keep copies at the front desk so they are readily available, and simply make additional copies as needed.
Download the PCP form and keep it on hand for your staff.

Superior HealthPlan Billing Changes
Important Provider Update
Effective September 1, 2025
The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) will transition Medicaid-only services for dually eligible clients (eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid) from Fee-for-Service (FFS) to a Managed Care service delivery system.
Superior HealthPlan will be responsible for adjudicating these claims.
Provider Responsibilities
Submit claims for Medicaid-only services for dual eligible clients directly to the Managed Care Organization (MCO).
If a Claim is Sent to TMHP in Error:
TMHP will forward the claim to the correct MCO.
The TMHP response will only confirm forwarding – no ER&S report will be issued.
Claims with dates of service on or after Sept. 1, 2025 will not be adjudicated by TMHP.
Provider Action Steps
✅ Submit Medicaid-only service claims directly to the MCO.
✅ Contact the MCO for claim status and adjudication questions.
✅ Review the Rider 32 Procedure Code List (PDF) for impacted services.
✅ Reach out to your Provider Representative via the Find My Provider Representative webpage.
