Jacobson - AHCA/NCAL Texas affiliate
AHCA/NCAL has welcomed the Texas Nursing Home Coalition as its state affiliate—strengthening advocacy and resources for Texas long-term care providers. Here's what it means for your facility.
A new state affiliate for Texas long-term care
The American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL)—the nation's largest association of long-term and post-acute care providers—has welcomed the Texas Nursing Home Coalition as its Texas state affiliate.
Why it matters for Texas providers
State affiliation generally means Texas nursing facilities gain a stronger, coordinated voice on the issues that shape daily operations—Medicaid reimbursement, survey and certification, staffing, and enforcement—plus broader access to regulatory updates, training, and advocacy at the state and federal level.
For facilities already navigating HHSC licensure, CMS survey activity, and reimbursement pressure, an organized state association is a useful complement to your own compliance and legal strategy.
What we're watching
- Engagement on Texas Medicaid and QIPP issues
- Coordination on survey, enforcement, and Life Safety Code priorities
- Member resources for SNF, ALF, and related providers
How Jacobson PLLC can help
Advocacy and sound legal counsel work best together. We advise Texas nursing facilities, assisted living, home health, and hospice providers on regulatory compliance, surveys, CMS appeals, and enforcement defense.
