Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

Doctors can delegate elective IV treatment

Beginning September 1, 2025, Texas doctors can delegate prescribing or ordering elective IV treatment to physician assistants or advanced practice registered nurses. Doctors can also delegate giving the treatment to these providers or registered nurses. All delegated care requires adequate physician supervision. Prescribing and ordering must follow state rules for physician delegation. These permissions apply to treatment that meets the law's definition of elective IV therapy.

Doctors face caps on IV agreements

Beginning September 1, 2025, Texas agreements allowing clinicians to prescribe elective IV treatment count toward the state's maximum for prescribing agreements. The exception to that maximum does not apply to elective IV agreements. This limits the prescribing arrangements doctors and advanced practice registered nurses can make.
