HB2356 by Johnson, Ann (relating to a mobile stroke unit grant program.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The fiscal implications of the bill cannot be determined due to uncertainty in the preferred scale of the mobile stroke unit grant program.
The bill would require the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to establish a mobile stroke unit grant program to improve health care outcomes for individuals who suffer a stroke and increase the availability of mobile stroke units in this state. It is assumed that the cost to administer the grant program could be absorbed within current resources. The cost to provide grants for mobile stroke units cannot be determined due to uncertainty in the preferred scale of the program. The cost for grants would depend on a variety of factors including the preferred number of stroke facilities that would receive grants and the average size of the grant.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
