House Bill 1036 amends the Insurance Code to include digital mammography and breast tomosynthesis as forms of low-dose mammography for which an applicable health benefit plan that provides coverage to a female who is 35 years of age or older must provide coverage in an annual screening for the presence of occult breast cancer. The bill revises, and provides certain exceptions to, the applicability of statutory provisions relating to mammography benefits as amended by the bill.
