HB 4122 requires the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to annually notify healthcare providers that postpartum women remain eligible for Medicaid for 12 months following the end of pregnancy. The bill directs hospitals, birthing centers, and prenatal care providers to include information about this extended eligibility in resource materials provided to pregnant women and new mothers. The Department of State Health Services must update informational materials to reflect this requirement by December 1, 2025.
