Texas Hospitals to Ask Patients' Citizenship Status, Report Costs of Illegal Aliens Care Under Republican Gov. Abbott
Nov 1, 2024, 12:19 PM
Starting November 1, 2024, Texas hospitals are required to ask patients about their citizenship status and report the costs of providing healthcare to illegal aliens. This mandate follows an executive order from Republican Governor Greg Abbott. Hospitals must submit quarterly reports, with the initial submissions due on March 1, 2025. The new law aims to tally the state's expenditure on medical care for undocumented immigrants, but it has faced criticism for being an invasion of privacy.
