Relating to consumer protections against certain medical and health care billing by emergency medical services providers.

HB 4054 strengthens consumer protections for patients receiving emergency medical services by targeting abusive billing practices. It allows Texas health authorities to revoke, suspend, or deny renewal of emergency medical services providers' licenses if they intentionally submit false billing information or repeatedly violate specific insurance code provisions. The bill also limits annual rate increases for these services to either the Medicare Ambulance Inflation Factor or 10% of the previous year’s rates - whichever is lower - preventing excessive billing hikes. These changes directly affect emergency medical services providers and aim to ensure transparent, fair billing for consumers.
