House Bill No. 2645 would amend the present Insurance Code by altering the function of independent review organizations. The bill plans to change certification requirements and require the Commissioner of Insurance to appoint an advisory committee to provide advice for the Texas Department of Insurance at least once a year. All costs associated with this bill would be absorbed by existing staff and available resources. A annual revenue gain of 23,400 dollars is expected in the Texas Department of Insurance. There is no significant local or state level fiscal impact projected.
