LBB recommends $4.2 billion for health‑related institutions; GME and clinical formulas drive general‑revenue increases
Summary
The Legislative Budget Board presented recommendations totaling about $4.2 billion in all funds for public health‑related institutions for 2026–27, with general‑revenue up roughly $121 million over the prior biennium mostly because of formula driver growth and maintained rates for several HRI formulas.
Brad Kane of the Legislative Budget Board told the subcommittee that the LBB’s introduced bill would recommend $4.2 billion in all funds for the 14 public health‑related institutions (HRIs) and Baylor College of Medicine for the 2026–27 biennium.
“Recommendations total $4,200,000,000 in all funds for the 20 20 six‑twenty 7 biennium, which is a decrease of $11,600,000 from 20 20 four‑twenty 5 base funding levels. Recommendations include $3,800,000,000 in general revenue, which is an increase of $120,900,000 from the previous biennium,” Kane said as he opened the HRI presentation.
