AI Summary
This bill amends the composition of the Texas Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee. It increases the total number of committee members from 17 to 23, adding several new member positions such as physicians specializing in emergency care, cardiology, anesthesiology, and oncology, as well as a representative from a managed care organization. The bill also changes the term structure for appointed members, requiring one-third or as near as possible to one-third of the members' terms to expire every two years, instead of four or five members at a time. This is intended to provide more consistent oversight and continuity on the committee.
