Title V

Title V Fee for Service provides on an annual basis, approximately $1.3 million of medical services to women and children. The Coalition has the upper 26 counties of Texas and Bailey and Hale counties involved in this program. Title V services are limited in scope to include prenatal care, child health, family planning, and dysplasia services to non-Medicaid eligible women and children under 185% of federal poverty level. Services are provided in clinical settings only with the exception of tubal ligations for sterilization. Emphasis is placed on well child exams and keeping immunizations current. By providing services in a clinical setting only, this population is encouraged to establish a medical home in their own community. Services are provided by physicians and nurse practitioners in private clinic settings as well as those managed by a local hospital district.
