Third Party Administrator (TPA) Licensing Services

Questions about Third Party Administrator Licensing?

Currently, forty-three (43) states require some type of license to act as a Third Party Administrator.  First Consulting has researched the licensing requirements in all states, and developed three different methods to assist TPAs with licensing:

·         Full Service TPA Licensing Services

·         On-Line TPA Licensing Manual, with telephone support

·         On-Line TPA Licensing Manual

Full Service Licensing Service:  Using a concise TPA licensing questionnaire that will disclose all information that will be requested by various jurisdictions, we can prepare all state-specific forms without having to request information for each jurisdiction separately.  By asking for this information at one time, we complete the applications quickly for all the requested states.

On-Line Licensing Manual, with telephone support:  For the do-it yourselfer that desires assistance on an as-needed basis.  You will receive the On-Line Licensing Manual plus up to 10 hours/year of consulting with an experienced associate that can provide you answers to your questions as you complete the necessary licensing applications.

On-Line Licensing Manual:  24/7 access to everything you need to create and file your own TPA licensing applications.

The On-Line Manual includes more than initial licensing forms…

·         A Summary Chart of all states that require TPA licensing with links to applicable laws and regulations.

·         State-by-State definitions of what constitutes a TPA in each state and a listing of any organizations that are not included.

·         State Licensing Requirements, in summary format.

·         State Renewal Licensing requirements, in summary format.

·         Links to each state’s Licensing Application forms.
