Relating to interagency sharing of certain information related to individuals disenrolled from Medicaid.
HB 4119 requires the Texas Medicaid Commission to share the name and contact information of individuals losing Medicaid coverage (with their written consent) with the Texas Department of Insurance. This allows the Insurance Department to proactively reach out to help these individuals apply for alternative health coverage. The bill mandates that information sharing complies with federal and state privacy laws and requires explicit individual consent before any data is transferred. It directly affects Medicaid disenrollees who choose to consent and the Texas Department of Insurance, which will use the information for outreach efforts. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
