SB 1112 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the determination of fees, charges, and rates for certain benefits under Medicaid.

SB 1112 modifies how Texas Medicaid determines payment rates for medical services. It requires the state to use community-standard fees when setting Medicaid payments, but explicitly excludes fees from membership discount programs (like discounted health plans offered by employers or organizations). This change directly affects healthcare providers who participate in Medicaid by ensuring their reimbursement rates reflect standard market pricing, not discounted rates from such membership programs. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, and includes a provision allowing state agencies to delay implementation if federal approval is needed.
