Texas SB832 establishes an expedited credentialing process for certain chiropractors joining professional practices contracted with managed care.

Texas SB832 amends the Insurance Code to create an expedited credentialing process for chiropractors joining established professional practices with managed care plans. The bill defines terms such as "applicant," "enrollee," "health care provider," and "managed care plan." To qualify, chiropractors must be licensed and in good standing with the Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners, submit required documentation, and agree to the managed care plan's terms. Managed care plans can exclude applicants from directories during the credentialing process.
