Amend SB 10 on third reading by adding the following
appropriately numbered SECTION to the bill and renumbering
subsequent SECTIONS accordingly:
SECTION____. Section 32.024, Human Resources Code, is
amended by adding Subsection (y-1) to read as follows:
(y-1) A woman who receives a breast or cervical cancer
screening service under Title XV of the Public Health Service Act
(42 U.S.C. Section 300k et seq.) and who otherwise meets the
eligibility requirements for medical assistance for treatment of
breast or cervical cancer as provided by Subsection (y) is eligible
for medical assistance under that subsection, regardless of whether
federal Medicaid matching funds are available for that medical
assistance. A screening service of a type that is within the scope
of screening services under that title is considered to be provided
under that title regardless of whether the service was provided by a
provider who receives or uses funds under that title.
