Senate Bill 73 amends the Human Resources Code to require the executive commissioner of the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to establish a separate provider type for a local public health entity for purposes of enrollment as a provider for and reimbursement under the state Medicaid program. Implementation of a provision of the bill by HHSC and the Department of State Health Services is mandatory only if a specific appropriation is made for that purpose.
