Title

Health care policies; eliminate cost-sharing for prostate screening coverage of high risk men

Description

Under existing law, health insurance plans are required to cover annual screening of men over 40 years of age for the early detection of prostate cancer.

This bill would require coverage of annual screening, regardless of age, for men who are in the high risk group for prostate cancer, which includes African American men and men with a first degree relative who has had prostate cancer.

This bill would also require that screening coverage for high risk men who are 40 years of age or younger be provided without deductibles, copayments, or other cost-sharing requirements.
