IN RE:
HB3711 by Bucy (Relating to including medically fragile individuals in the Texas Division of Emergency Management's emergency assistance registry for wellness checks during certain emergencies.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to including medically fragile individuals in the Texas Division of Emergency Management's emergency assistance registry could be absorbed using existing resources.
Local Government Impact
The fiscal implications of the bill cannot be determined at this time. While it is anticipated that localities would require additional staff to perform wellness checks, however these costs cannot be quantified in a meaningful manner at this time.
