Texas SB922 regulates the electronic disclosure of sensitive medical test results, requiring a three-day delay.

Texas SB922 amends the Occupations Code to regulate the electronic disclosure of sensitive medical test results. Specifically, it prohibits the disclosure of sensitive test results, defined as pathology or radiology reports indicating malignancy or genetic markers, to patients or their representatives via electronic means before the third day after the results are finalized. The bill also assigns responsibility for implementing this delay to the person who administers or controls the patient's electronic health record.
