Texas PASS is easy to use and connects you with a pediatric subspecialist within 30 minutes. Texas PASS is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
If you are a PCP in Northeast or North Central Texas, follow these 3 simple steps to use Texas PASS:
- Have your patient’s chart on hand to relay the chief complaint and basic demographics to the program coordinator.
- Dial toll-free 1-877-282-PASS (7277) to speak with a program coordinator who will take the information and connect you with one of our consulting UT Southwestern faculty subspecialists within 30 minutes.
- Discuss your case with the subspecialist and develop a plan of care for the patient. If a referral is needed after the consultation, the program coordinator will provide a list of subspecialists available to see Medicaid patients and will facilitate that referral when possible. You will receive a follow-up letter for your patient’s chart that may be used with your documentation to support the level of care you provided.
