Relating to a report by the Health and Human Services Commission on Medicaid eligibility determinations.

HB 2994 requires the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to prepare an annual report on Medicaid application processing times starting from fiscal year 2018. The report must detail specific metrics including total applications, approvals, denials (with reasons), average and median processing times, pending applications, and the longest processing duration for each fiscal year. The Commission must submit this report to state leadership by December 1, 2026. This bill does not change Medicaid policy but mandates transparency about current application processing timelines.
