Relating to requiring an opportunity for an annual physical examination for certain students, interns, residents, and fellows enrolled in or receiving residency training or clinical education from public and private medical schools and graduate medical education programs.

HB 3820 requires Texas public and private medical schools and graduate medical education programs to provide an annual physical examination opportunity for medical students, interns, residents, and fellows. Specifically, institutions must designate a specific time each academic year for these trainees to receive a physical exam and notify them about the availability and importance of the exam. The law applies starting with the 2025-2026 academic year, with immediate implementation possible if approved by a two-thirds vote in both legislative chambers. This bill focuses on administrative requirements for institutions, not mandating exams themselves.
