Formation of an Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) Work Group was authorized by the Texas Board of Physical Therapy Examiners (PT Board) in April 2022 with the task of reviewing and updating the PT Rules/ECI Crosswalk (Crosswalk) that was developed in 2006. The Work Group consisted of Physical Therapists who work in the ECI setting, as well as staff from the Texas Board of Physical Therapy Examiners and the Health Services Commission (HHSC) Early Intervention (ECI) state office.

Th Crosswalk is a collaboration that addresses terminology, procedures, and documentation; and provides a “crosswalk” for the compliance requirements of the rules governing both the PT field and ECI. The final updated version was approved at the PT Board’s July 21, 2023 meeting.
