New Jersey A2152 mandates health insurers to cover mammograms for women starting at age 18 and additional imaging tests under certain conditions.
New Jersey A2152 amends existing laws to require health insurers to provide coverage for mammograms for women starting at age 18, rather than age 40 as previously required. The bill also mandates coverage for additional imaging tests, such as ultrasound evaluations, magnetic resonance imaging scans, and three-dimensional mammography, if recommended by a physician. These additional tests are required if the mammogram shows extremely dense breast tissue or if the patient has risk factors like a family history of breast cancer.
