Historical Notes

During the 84th Legislative Session in 2015, Senate Bill 200 significantly reorganizes the health and human services system, and requires a limited-scope Sunset review in 2023 to evaluate HHSC's progress in meeting reorganization requirements.  Senate Bill 200 also requires a full Sunset review of HHSC in 2027, in which HHSC will be subject to abolishment. The transferred functions of DADS and DARS will be reviewed as a part of HHSC in 2027.
