Notes

Confirmed specifically for hospice services licensed as a Home and Community Support Services Agency (HCSSA) under 26 TAC Ch. 558 — a hospice must designate one physician in writing as medical director. General (non-hospice) home health HCSSA licensure was only confirmed to require a 'clinical director' who may be an RN OR a physician, not a physician-specific medical director — do not extend this entry to non-hospice home-based care without further verification.
