More specifically, the official text was summarized by the state legislature as ’’Relating to liability limits in a health care liability claim’’.
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
This bill amends the Civil Practice and Remedies Code to adjust liability limits in health care liability claims based on changes in the consumer price index (CPI) since September 1, 2003. The adjustments will reflect the percentage change in the CPI, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which tracks average price changes for goods and services for urban wage earners and clerical workers' families. These changes apply to liability limits and financial responsibility amounts for claims accruing after the bill's effective date. The bill takes effect immediately with a two-thirds legislative vote or on September 1, 2025, if the required vote is not achieved.
