SB 722 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to a mobile stroke unit grant program.

SB 722 establishes a state grant program to fund mobile stroke units at designated stroke facilities in Texas. It provides financial assistance for capital costs like specialized vehicles, mobile CT scanners, and medical equipment needed to operate these units, which diagnose and treat stroke patients outside hospitals. Only stroke facilities with top-level (Level 1) state certification can apply for grants, and recipients must report annually on health outcomes. The program aims to improve stroke care access and outcomes by increasing mobile unit availability across the state.
