|
|
celebrating Children's Hospital Day on January 25, 2023; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Approximately one out of every ten children in the |
|
|
United States lives in Texas, and it is imperative that these |
|
|
children have access to the highest level of comprehensive |
|
|
pediatric care in the country; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The State of Texas has recognized Children's Health, |
|
|

|
|

Children as "children's hospitals" for the purposes of the state |
|
|
Medicaid program; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, These comprehensive hospitals provide lifesaving |
|
|
care to children across the state and serve as safety nets for their |
|
|
families; the hospitals fund pediatric specialists and |
|
|
subspecialists, and as a result, all children have access to the |
|
|
care they need, regardless of their family's ability to pay; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, By providing high-quality pediatric care, |
|
|
children's hospitals are helping to ensure the health and |
|
|
well-being of countless young Texans, and they are indeed deserving |
|
|

|
|
Lone Star State; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commemorate Children's Hospital Day on January |
|
|

|
|
important work; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|

|
|
