H.B. No. 3399 amends existing Texas law regarding procedures and treatments for gender transitioning, gender reassignment, or gender dysphoria, specifically addressing the use of public funds for these services. The bill removes references to "children" in the context of prohibited procedures, thereby broadening the scope to include individuals of all ages. It prohibits healthcare providers from performing surgeries that sterilize individuals, administering certain prescription drugs that induce infertility, or removing healthy body parts, while also outlining exceptions for specific medical conditions and ongoing treatments initiated before June 1, 2025.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that public funds cannot be used to support any healthcare provider or entity that offers procedures or treatments prohibited under the new regulations. It also redesignates and amends sections related to Medicaid and the child health plan program to ensure that no reimbursement is provided for services aimed at transitioning an individual's biological sex. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, contingent upon any necessary federal waivers or authorizations.
