Overview
This bill requires New Jersey health insurers to cover certain imaging related to breast cancer detection. Specifically, it mandates coverage for a baseline mammogram for women 18 and older, annual mammograms for women aged 18 and over, and physician-directed imaging like ultrasounds, MRIs, or 3D mammography if a mammogram or risk assessment indicates dense breast tissue or other risk factors. The coverage is subject to utilization review and aims to improve early breast cancer detection.
