H.R. No. 440 is a resolution commemorating the 30th anniversary of Methodist Healthcare Ministries of South Texas, which will be celebrated in 2025. The organization has its roots in 1955 when the Southwest Conference of The United Methodist Church established a nonprofit to operate hospitals. Since its founding in 1995, Methodist Healthcare Ministries has continued to provide accessible and quality healthcare to underserved populations, becoming the largest healthcare provider in San Antonio and surrounding areas. The organization offers a wide range of services, including primary medical and dental care, counseling, and community wellness programs, and has invested over $82 million in community grants and initiatives to improve access to care and address social determinants of health.

The resolution highlights the organization's achievements, including its recognition with the 2024 Governor's Texas Award for Performance Excellence, which acknowledges its exemplary business practices and commitment to quality service. It expresses gratitude for the contributions of the staff and the impact of Methodist Healthcare Ministries on the health and well-being of countless individuals in the region. The Texas House of Representatives extends its best wishes for the future of the organization and plans to prepare an official copy of the resolution as a token of high regard.
