S 3810 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires health insurers to provide coverage for certain imaging related to breast cancer detection.

This New Jersey bill requires health insurance plans to cover specific breast cancer screening and diagnostic imaging services for women starting at age 18. The law mandates that insurers provide annual mammograms for women 18 and older, along with additional imaging tests like ultrasounds and MRIs when a woman has dense breast tissue, abnormal mammogram results, or other risk factors such as family history or genetic testing. Insurers may still review these additional tests for medical necessity, but the coverage must be provided under the same terms as other medical benefits. The bill applies to all health insurance contracts issued or renewed in the state after the effective date.
