Opportunity Overview
Texas HHSC, on behalf of the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) Adult Protective Services program, is maintaining an open enrollment to establish contracts with qualified applicants that can provide Personal Assistance Care (PAC) services to APS clients who need help with daily activities.
Current Application Window
The official HHS opportunity page lists a submission deadline of May 1, 2029 at 5:00 PM CDT. This is a long-horizon provider contracting pathway rather than a one-time competitive grant round.
Funding Structure
This is an open-enrollment service contract, not a fixed-dollar grant. The current public HHS opportunity page does not publish a universal award ceiling or guaranteed contract value. Applicants should use the controlling Open Enrollment document, application and posted addenda for current payment, service and contracting terms rather than importing rates from other Texas personal-care programs.
Who Should Evaluate the Opportunity
Organizations capable of delivering personal-assistance services to Adult Protective Services clients should review the current HHS0014687 package to determine whether they satisfy all provider qualifications. Exact organizational, staffing, licensing, insurance, service-area, screening, documentation and operational requirements are controlled by the solicitation documents and any addenda.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 86/100. This is a durable Texas community-based care contracting pathway with a multi-year enrollment horizon and direct relevance to organizations that support vulnerable adults with daily-living needs. It is especially useful as a provider-network opportunity because qualified organizations can evaluate participation without waiting for a short annual grant cycle.
N9+ Direct Vendor Fit: 0/100. The verified scope is personal-assistance care for daily activities, not telehealth, remote physical examination, RPM, connected diagnostic equipment or clinical-technology procurement. Atlas therefore does not force a Dr. Miltie technology fit.
Recommended Next Action
Review the current Open Enrollment, PAC application and all posted addenda; confirm that the organization meets every current provider and service-delivery requirement; identify the Texas coverage area the organization can reliably support; assemble required corporate, staffing, insurance and operational documentation; and submit a complete application well before the May 1, 2029 closing date.
