A 10893 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the age of persons enrolled in certain large group policies who receive annual mammograms

This bill, known as "Shannon's Law," lowers the age for annual mammograms in large group insurance plans from 35 to 30. It requires insurers to cover yearly screenings for individuals aged 30 through 39 when a doctor recommends them and deems the test medically necessary. The law also maintains existing coverage for baseline mammograms for ages 35 to 39 and annual screenings for those 40 and older. Directly affecting large group policyholders, the measure expands access to breast cancer screening for younger women while leaving other age groups and policy types unchanged.
