HB 1649 amends the Insurance Code to expand the powers of self-insurance trusts for healthcare liability claims. It allows such trusts to issue professional liability insurance and other insurance to licensed medical or dental professionals, regardless of their membership in the association that created the trust. The bill ensures that trust membership is not a requirement for obtaining coverage.
