What Texas licenses
Texas requires a state licensed-midwife license, issued by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation under Occupations Code Chapter 203, for non-nurse midwives [1]. Certified nurse-midwives are licensed by the Texas Board of Nursing [1]. Holding a national certified professional midwife credential is not the same as holding the Texas license [1]. Confirm the license with TDLR or 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.
According to the Texas Medicaid Provider Procedures Manual, licensed midwives will not be reimbursed for home deliveries, and home deliveries will not be prior authorized to a licensed midwife [3]. A written prior authorization request is required during the client's third trimester for home deliveries and home-delivery supplies, and it must include a statement signed by a licensed physician who examined the client during the third trimester and determined the client is not at high risk for complications and is suitable for a home delivery [3]. Texas Medicaid reimburses a licensed midwife for specified prenatal, labor and delivery, immediate postpartum and newborn services only when the service is provided in a freestanding birthing center licensed under Health and Safety Code Chapter 244 and approved by HHSC, and 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.
