Protect Our Patients & Our Profession – Say NO to SB 30 and HB 4806

Insurance and corporate lobbyists are pushing SB 30 at the State Capitol—bills that threaten our ability to provide quality care to our patients. As Texas physicians, we must stand united against this attack on healthcare access and physician autonomy.

What These Bills Mean for Physicians:

• ❌ Penalties for Treating Injury Victims – Physicians who choose to care for injury victims would face financial penalties.
• ❌ Restricted Reimbursement – These bills limit our ability to obtain fair compensation for treating injury victims, making it harder for patients to access the care they need.
• ❌ State-Controlled Pricing – The government, not physicians, would set reimbursement rates, undermining our ability to determine fair charges for our services.
• ❌ Loss of Autonomy – These measures strip physicians of our right to contract freely and move us toward a regulated, socialist-style system.

What These Bills Mean for Patients:

• ❌ Higher Out-of-Pocket Costs – Patients will bear a greater financial burden for essential care.
• ❌ Restricted Access to Care – Fewer treatment options mean delayed or denied medical attention.
• ❌ Limited Physician Choice – Patients will have fewer choices when selecting a doctor.

Take Action Now!

• ✅ Vote NO on SB 30 & HB 4806
• ✅ Stand with your fellow physicians and the patients we serve
• ✅ Protect our right to practice medicine and our patients’ access to care
• ✅ Tell lawmakers: Reject SB 30 & HB 4806!
  
  

The Real Stakes:

“These bills don’t just hamstring us as doctors—they punish the Texans we’re here to heal, injured through no fault of their own, while insurance companies cash in.”
