Texas HB3505 allows health care provider participation districts to continue operating under new provisions.

Texas HB3505 amends the Health and Safety Code to allow a health care provider participation district created by certain local governments to operate under new provisions instead of Chapter 300A. This applies if local governments adopt concurrent orders authorizing the district to operate under the new provisions and the district's board ratifies the orders. The board must hold a public hearing on mandatory payments and their use. The district can collect mandatory payments from hospitals to fund Medicaid supplemental payments and administrative expenses.
