SB 2192 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to state fiscal matters.

SB 2192 allows Texas state agencies administering health and human services programs (like Medicaid, TANF, and child health programs) to streamline operations and reduce administrative costs. It authorizes agencies to consolidate reports, extend licenses, use electronic communications, and modify eligibility processes - while complying with federal law - to improve efficiency. Specifically, it permits agencies to adopt additional eligibility requirements for programs under Chapters 31-33 of the Human Resources Code and Chapters 540-540A of the Government Code. The bill directly affects agencies like the Health and Human Services Commission and the Department of Family and Protective Services by expanding their administrative flexibility. It does not create new benefits or alter program funding but focuses on operational adjustments to manage state fiscal responsibilities.
