Bill Analysis

HB 2742 would require the Health and Human Services Commission to conduct an audit every six months of each health care provider listed as participating in the Healthy Texas Women program to determine whether the provider: (1) is participating in the program and has accurate contact information listed; and (2) make updates to the program provider list to "facilitate women’s access to the program’s health care services."
