John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB3231 by Davis, John (Relating to clarification of Section 533.0075, Government Code, and validation of certain acts and decisions made by the Health and Human Services Commission in construing a contract entered into under that section.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would clarify state law relating to the enrollment of newborn infants into the state Medicaid program's managed care plans, and would repeal the provision for temporary assignment of Medicaid-eligible newborn infants to the traditional fee-for-service component of the program. The Health and Human Services Commission assumes that there would be no fiscal impact from the bill because the bill clarifies current practice.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
