         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB2472 ( Relating 
to the reporting of certain injuries to the Texas Department 
of Health.) this office has detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB2472-As Passed 2nd House
         
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         
It is assumed that the addition of traumatic brain injuries 
as a reportable condition could be accomplished within existing 
resources. 

The bill would make no appropriation but could 
provide the legal basis for an appropriation of funds to implement 
the provisions of the bill.
         
 
          
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government 
is anticipated.
