Cantu’s Pharmacy v. Texas HHSC — Medicaid Provider Has No Vested Right to Special Notice of Regulation Changes; Sovereign Immunity Bars Pre-Enforcement Suit

automatic / June 8, 2026

The Texas Fifteenth Court of Appeals held that a Medicaid pharmacy has no vested right to individualized notice of Provider Manual changes, that its pre-enforcement due process and declaratory judgment claims were barred by sovereign immunity, and that dismissal with prejudice was proper after the pharmacy amended its pleadings but still failed to state a cognizable claim.
