HHSC stated that the committee was set to sunset this December, but the Legislature continued the Committee to 2023. HHSC asked to know who wanted to remain on the extended committee. Vacated seats will be filled by HHSC through the committee recruitment process. Term limits will have to be examined as part of this process. The Chair asked that if members were thinking about resigning their position, they could stay until a replacement is found.
