The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is notifying practitioners who see Medicaid patients that those patients can’t be required to provide documentation of their COVID-19 vaccination status as a condition of receiving services under Texas Medicaid.
The agency’s Sept. 17 announcement references Gov. Greg Abbott’s Aug. 25 executive order, which bars “[a]ny public or private entity that is receiving or will receive public funds through any means” from requiring COVID-19 vaccination documentation to receive services.
