S 2760 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Reducing Hereditary Cancer Act of 2025

This bill requires Medicare to cover genetic testing for inherited cancer risks (like BRCA mutations) for individuals with a family history or suspicious personal history. It also mandates coverage for preventive surgeries (such as mastectomies or hysterectomies) to reduce cancer risk when recommended by clinical guidelines. Additionally, it increases the frequency of evidence-based screenings (like mammograms, colonoscopies, or MRIs) for those with confirmed hereditary cancer mutations, requiring coverage at least annually. These changes apply to Medicare beneficiaries and are based on guidelines from major oncology organizations like the National Comprehensive Cancer Network.
