The PSA Screening for HIM Act mandates coverage for prostate cancer screenings without cost-sharing for high-risk insured men.
The PSA Screening for HIM Act amends the Public Health Service Act to require group health plans and health insurance issuers to cover prostate cancer screenings without cost-sharing for men aged 40 and over who are at high risk, including African-American men and those with a family history of prostate cancer. The bill aims to improve early detection and survival rates, as early-stage prostate cancer has a near 100 percent survival rate, while late-stage cancer has only a 37 percent survival rate.
