Data Broker
HHSC contracts with a Data Broker vendor to provide financial and other background information about SNAP, TANF and Medicaid applicants and recipients. The vendor collects and combines information from multiple sources into one report.
Staff may also request a credit report before the initial interview only on the individual who signed the agency’s application form, or for individuals for whom assistance is requested on the agency’s application form.
Agency users of Data Broker must successfully complete the initial web-based training and assessment(s) for the appropriate program area. Once training is successfully completed, the user automatically has access to the Data Broker interface in both TIERS and the Data Broker stand-alone system.
