Senate Bill 1780 amends the Government Code to authorize the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to enter into a value‑based arrangement for the Medicaid vendor drug program by written agreement with a manufacturer of prescription drugs based on outcome data or other metrics. Implementation of a provision of this bill by HHSC is mandatory only if a specific appropriation is made for that purpose.
