Medicare Access in Texas: Costco is rolling out Medicare Advantage plans in select states through a partnership with SCAN Health Plan, with pharmacy, vision and hearing benefits integrated in some markets—pending federal approval. Public Health & Safety: Texas health officials are warning about rising candida auris, a hard-to-treat yeast infection, with Greater Houston seeing the highest rates in the state. Food Safety: The FDA upgraded an egg recall tied to salmonella to its highest risk level, after earlier reports that eggs sold at major Texas grocery chains were affected. Local Care & Housing Heat Relief: Houston City Council is set to vote on a “Right to A/C” ordinance requiring working refrigerated air conditioning in rental units, while a council member launches a free portable A/C giveaway for seniors and other vulnerable residents. Health Policy Leadership: President Trump has chosen Dr. Heidi Overton to lead the FDA, as the agency faces major staffing losses and ongoing foodborne illness investigations. Texas Courts & Newborn Care: A Dallas-area surrogacy custody fight continues after a newborn received heart surgery, keeping the case in the spotlight for medical decision-making in Texas.
