HF 488 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Medically necessary dental procedures that are a result of a cancer treatment required to be covered by health plans.

HF 488 requires all Minnesota health plans to cover medically necessary dental procedures directly caused by cancer treatments like chemotherapy, biotherapy, or radiation. This includes related evaluations, exams, lab tests, medications, and treatments. The law applies to health plans defined under Minnesota Statutes, ensuring coverage for dental care resulting from cancer therapy, not general dental needs. It takes effect after enactment for new or renewed insurance contracts.
