New Jersey SCR97 urges Congress to enact the "Find It Early Act" to ensure breast cancer screenings are covered without cost-sharing for women at.
New Jersey SCR97 urges Congress to enact the "Find It Early Act," which would require health insurance plans to cover breast cancer screenings and diagnostic imaging, including mammograms, breast ultrasounds, and breast MRIs, for women with dense breasts or other breast cancer risk factors at no cost. The resolution highlights the importance of early detection, noting that the five-year survival rate for breast cancer drops significantly when diagnosed at a later stage. It emphasizes that dense breast tissue can obscure imaging performed by mammograms, potentially delaying cancer detection.
