LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 17, 2009 TO: Honorable John T. Smithee, Chair, House Committee on Insurance FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB4095 by Eiland (Relating to subrogation rights of certain insurers.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Insurance Code relating to the subrogation rights of certain insurers. Based on the analysis of the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI), it is assumed that there would be a one-time revenue gain of $5,300 in the General Revenue Dedicated Account Fund 36 in fiscal year 2010 because the bill would result in additional filings by health maintenance organizations. Since General Revenue Dedicated Account Fund 36 is a self-leveling account, this analysis assumes all revenue generated would go toward fund balances or the maintenance tax would be set to recover a lower level of revenue the following year. It is also assumed that any costs realized by TDI from implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing resources. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
