Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend Health and Safety Code, Chapters 241, 243, and 251, to increase the maximum administrative penalty from $1,000 to $25,000 per violation, per day, for certain health care facilities licensed by the Department of State Health Services (DSHS).

Methodology
DSHS anticipates implementation of the bill would yield an increase in General Revenue. DSHS estimates that there will be eleven (11) enforcement cases per year, each paying an increase in penalties of at least $8,000, resulting in an estimated $88,000 increase in revenue per fiscal year. The estimated number of cases is based on Fiscal Year 2012 data.
