TX HHS Form 2031. Designation of Authorized Individual(s) - Business Entity

The Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) Form 2031, "Designation of Authorized Individual(s) - Business Entity," serves as a crucial tool for business entities to authorize specific individuals to negotiate contracts with HHS and execute agreements on their behalf. This form is essential for ensuring that authorized representatives have the necessary authority to manage contract-related activities.

This form requires the business entity to provide its name, doing business as (DBA) if applicable, and one of the following: taxpayer identification number (EIN or SSN), provider identifier number (NPI or API). The designated individual(s) will have the power to implement, maintain, amend, renew, or request closure of contracts with HHS. It is essential for business entities to update this form if there are changes to the authorized representatives.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) issues this form to ensure that business entities can effectively manage their contractual relationships. By completing Form 2031, business entities demonstrate their commitment to transparency and accountability in their dealings with HHS. This form is a vital tool for ensuring seamless communication and cooperation between business entities and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission.
