HB 1319 establishes a program under the Health and Human Services Commission to allow the wholesale importation of prescription drugs from Canada and the European Union. The program aims to reduce drug costs for Texas consumers by ensuring compliance with U.S. Food and Drug Administration standards and addressing patent and regulatory requirements. It prohibits certain drugs, like biologicals and controlled substances, and mandates annual reporting on the program’s cost savings and operational outcomes.
