If any member of the Board wishes to resign, the member will contact, in writing, the current Chair and HHSC Board Liaison informing of the member's resignation date and requesting the appointment of a successor member.

In the event of a vacancy for any reason, agency staff will work with the HHSC Executive Commissioner to solicit applications as appropriate to fill the vacancy with a representative of the same membership category to serve the unexpired portion of the term of the vacant position. People who submitted applications within the previous year but were not selected through the HHSC may be reconsidered for membership.

Applicants may apply to become members of the Board by following the application process on the HHSC website.
