Overview
This bill aims to provide cancer and cardiovascular screenings to law enforcement officers in New Jersey. It establishes a dedicated fund, the ‘SHBP Law Enforcement Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Screenings Fund,’ to cover these costs. The fund will be supported by a $10 surcharge collected from motor vehicle summonses, and the bill appropriates $20 million to initiate the program. It also addresses providing similar screenings to law enforcement officers enrolled in healthcare plans other than the State Health Benefits Program.
