the TMHP Long Term Care Online Portal indicating the individual has
changed his designated hospice or revoked his election of hospice
care; and
(2) for each individual receiving Medicaid hospice
services who is changing his designated hospice, ensure that a copy
of the individual's active record is sent to the receiving hospice
