John McGeady, Assistant Director Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB3193 by Hinojosa (Relating to the licensing of a home and community support services agency; increasing fees.), As Engrossed
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would change the home and community support services agency licensure period from two to three years. According to the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), this would require the agency to make modifications to the Texas Unified Licensure Information Portal. LBB analysis indicates that these activities could be completed with existing resources.
The bill would increase the maximum license fee for home and community support services agencies from $2,000 to $2,625. The Comptroller of Public Accounts indicates that the increase in the maximum license fee in combination with the increase in the license term would not have a significant fiscal impact on revenue.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
