Texas HB4094 amends the Health and Safety Code to regulate freestanding emergency medical care facilities. The bill defines "patient" as an individual seeking or receiving emergency care at a facility. It mandates that facilities post notices stating they are freestanding emergency medical care facilities, charge rates comparable to hospital emergency rooms, and may charge a facility fee only for emergency care. The bill also requires facilities to inform patients if they or their physicians may be out-of-network providers.
