Bill > HB1775

This bill requires health plans and insurers in Tennessee to cover clinical genetic testing for inherited gene mutations in individuals with a personal or family history of cancer, if recommended by a healthcare professional, and evidence-based cancer imaging for individuals at increased risk of cancer, as guided by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical practice guidelines. Importantly, this coverage must not be subject to any out-of-pocket expenses like deductibles or copayments, although there's a provision for high-deductible health plans to align with federal health savings account rules, ensuring that these cancer-related services are still covered after a deductible is met for certain plans, or immediately if they are considered preventive care.
