ISSUES

The TCCRI Healthcare Project addresses a range of issues that encourage greater accountability and transparency in both the delivery of healthcare services and healthcare coverage offerings, including:
 

  • Easing licensure requirements to allow out-of-state providers in good standing to practice in Texas and to utilize non-physician providers to help meet the state’s growing needs. 
     

  • Expanding the use of telehealth and other technology to allow for the delivery of services to underserved areas of the state. 
     

  • Rebuffing new or expanded mandates that increase consumer healthcare costs and premiums. 
     

  • Combatting attempts at the federal level to over-regulate the Texas insurance market, expand the Medicaid program, or impose price controls. 
     

  • Promoting healthcare price and quality transparency to foster free market competition.
