LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 3, 2011 TO: Honorable John T. Smithee, Chair, House Committee on Insurance FROM: John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2172 by Torres (Relating to the eligibility of certain children under group life insurance policies.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Insurance Code relating to the eligibility of certain children under group life insurance policies. 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 would result in a one-time revenue gain ($18,700 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. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. Source Agencies:454 Department of Insurance LBB Staff: JOB, KJG, CH
