Bill > SB2087

This bill establishes a temporary health insurance risk pool in Texas, to be administered by the commissioner of insurance. The pool aims to provide a mechanism for accessing federal funds to assist Texas residents in obtaining affordable health care coverage, without expanding the state's Medicaid program. The bill outlines the purposes, funding, and administration of the pool, including the authority to apply for waivers from federal healthcare laws and regulations. The pool is set to expire on August 31, 2019, and the bill requires annual reporting on its activities.
