Ongoing Development of the Credentialing Process
Beginning in 2024, new and existing providers electing to provide one or more of the T3C Service Packages and/or Add-On Services will need to apply to become credentialed.
Based on the current T3C roll-out schedule, all providers will have to become credentialed before September 1, 2027, to provide services to children and youth in DFPS conservatorship or young adults in Extended Foster Care (except for providers only offering Supervised Independent Living Services).
DFPS is currently working with stakeholders to develop the process that will be used to Credential providers, based on one or more of the twenty-four Service Packages and three Add-On Services.
The step-by-step process for Interim Credentialing is defined in the July 2024 edition of the T3C System Blueprint. The application for Interim Credential will be released in September 2024. Details regarding the step-by-step process for Full Credentialing will be included in the October 2024 edition of the T3C System Blueprint.
