LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION May 20, 2011 TO: Honorable Robert Duncan, Chair, Senate Committee on State Affairs FROM: John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2102 by Hernandez Luna (Relating to the requirement that certain mammography reports contain information regarding supplemental breast cancer screening.), Committee Report 2nd House, Substituted No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Insurance Code relating to the requirement that certain mammography reports contain information regarding supplemental breast cancer screening. Based on the analysis provided by the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI), it is assumed that any costs associated with the implementation of this bill would be absorbed within existing agency resources. Also based on information provided by TDI, this analysis assumes that implementation of the bill could result in a one-time revenue gain ($31,000 in fiscal year 2012) in General Revenue-Dedicated Texas Department of Insurance Fund 36 from filing fees. Since General Revenue-Dedicated Texas Department of Insurance Fund 36 is a self-leveling account, this analysis also assumes that any additional revenue resulting from the implementation of the bill would accumulate in the account fund balances and that the department would adjust the assessment of the maintenance tax or other fees accordingly in the following year. It is assumed that any costs associated with the Employee Retirement System, the University of Texas System Administration, the Texas A&M University System, and the Teacher Retirement System implementing the provisions of this bill could be absorbed within existing agency resources. In fiscal years 2014 through 2016, these costs may differ depending on the essential health benefits approved by Health and Human Services per Section 1311 (d) (3) (B) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
