What Texas licenses
Under Occupations Code Chapter 203, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation issues the licensed-midwife license that non-nurse midwives need to practice in Texas [1]. Certified nurse-midwives are licensed by the Texas Board of Nursing [1]. The national CPM credential, by itself, is not the Texas license [1]. Look a midwife up with TDLR, or a certified nurse-midwife with the Board of Nursing, before you hire [1]. The Texas midwife guide has the state-level sources.

Texas Medicaid and home birth
Ask your Texas Medicaid plan, in writing, whether it pays for a planned home birth, which credentials it enrolls, and whether prior authorization is required. Then ask the midwife whether she is enrolled and accepting Medicaid clients.
The Texas Medicaid Provider Procedures Manual provides that licensed midwives will not be reimbursed for home deliveries and that those deliveries will not be prior authorized to a licensed midwife [3]. Home deliveries and home-delivery supplies require a written prior authorization request in the client's third trimester, with a statement signed by a licensed physician who examined the client during that trimester and found the client is not at high risk for complications and is suitable for a home delivery [3]. Reimbursement to a licensed midwife for specified prenatal, labor and delivery, immediate postpartum and newborn services is limited to a freestanding birthing center licensed under Health and Safety Code Chapter 244 and approved by HHSC, when the midwife is enrolled in Medicaid [4]. Ask your plan and the midwife to confirm how that applies to you. The Texas Medicaid home birth page has the state-specific sources.
Hospitals nearby
A hospital being near you does not mean a given midwife transfers there. Ask each midwife which hospital she uses and who goes with you if you transfer.
Nearby hospitals include Methodist Hospital Stone Oak at 1139 East Sonterra Boulevard, in San Antonio.
