Operation Border Health has been canceled for 2025. This page will be updated with information about future events.

Operation Border Health (OBH), formerly known as Operation Lone Star, is an exercise to help the community get ready for disasters. DSHS and local partners offer free medical, dental, and vision services to the community during the event.

OBH 2024 took place on July 22-26 2024. Over 26,000 services were provided at OBH 2024 and over 5,750 patients were seen in 5 locations across South Texas. The event was made possible by local county and city health departments, medical schools, human service organizations, Texas Military Forces and universities, as well as out-of-state agencies, such as Remote Area Medical (RAM) and other volunteer groups.
