Iowa HSB266 mandates cancer screening benefits for firefighters, police officers, and emergency medical services providers, and appropriates funds.
Iowa HSB266 requires public employers to provide health care benefits that include cancer screening examinations for full-time firefighters, police officers, and emergency medical services providers. These screenings must occur within the first three years of employment and every three years thereafter. The bill expands the definition of "cancer" to include more diagnoses, thereby expanding accidental disability and death benefits for affected employees.
