Relating to the amount of a hospital or physician lien on certain causes of action or claims.
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
HB 2064 would create an alternative method for calculating the amount of a hospital or physician lien on certain causes of action. If the trier of fact specifies the amount awarded for hospital charges provided to the injured individual, the lien would be the amount awarded minus the share of reasonable attorney's fees and expenses incurred by the injured individual.
Texas Action is neutral on HB 2064.
