Vetoed·6/22/25

Texas SB268 modifies complaint procedures for health care practitioners licensed by different entities.

Texas SB268 amends Chapter 112 of the Occupations Code to establish procedures for complaints against health care practitioners licensed by different entities. The bill mandates that if a licensing entity receives a complaint about a practitioner licensed by another entity, it must forward a copy of the complaint to the appropriate licensing entity. Additionally, the licensing entity cannot take disciplinary action unless it refers the complaint back to the entity that received it for investigation and resolution. The changes apply to complaints filed after the bill's effective date.
