Senate Bill 204 amends the Health and Safety Code to require a person who sells, leases, or otherwise provides an electronic medical records software system to a person who administers immunizations in Texas, or to an entity that manages records for that person, to design or equip the software with the ability to electronically interface with the statewide immunization registry and to generate reports that contain data fields necessary to populate the registry. The bill directs the executive commissioner of the Health and Human Services Commission to specify the data fields and standards necessary to comply with the requirements of the bill and authorizes the attorney general to file an injunction against a violation of provisions of the bill.
