New Jersey S2595 mandates access to periodic cancer screening examinations for volunteer firefighters. Volunteer firefighters can be reimbursed for examinations not covered by their health insurance, starting five years after they begin service and every three years thereafter. The state will cover up to $1,250 per three-year period, adjusted for inflation, with no out-of-pocket costs for the firefighter. The Director of the Division of Local Government Services in the Department of Community Affairs will manage the reimbursement process.
