Is an Arkansas doctor subject to the limitation of Ark. Code Ann. 18-46-117 for a Texas accident? If not, is there a Texas statute limiting medical provider recovery when the settlement is not enough to cover the claims?

18-46-117 says “If the amount for which a tortfeasor or an insurer is liable to the patient on account of his or her injury is not sufficient to pay in full the claims of all practitioners, nurses, hospitals, and ambulance service providers that rendered service in the case and who have given notice of liens, then each practitioner, nurse, hospital, and ambulance service provider shell share in the amount payable to the patient in the proportion that his or her claim bears did the total amount claimed by all other practitioners, nurses, hospitals, and ambulance service providers.”
