Relating to the statute of limitations on a health care liability claim involving certain gender modification drugs provided to and procedures performed on a minor.
HB 1088 modifies Texas law to extend the deadline for minors to file lawsuits about medical malpractice involving gender transition care. Specifically, it sets a deadline of the claimant's 25th birthday for claims related to puberty suppression drugs, cross-sex hormones, or surgery performed on minors for gender transitioning or reassignment. This provision applies only when the minor was under 12 at the time of treatment (per existing law) and the claim involves malpractice in the provision of these specific treatments. The change takes effect September 1, 2025, and applies only to claims accruing after that date.
