Bill Summary
Relative to insurance coverage for mammograms. Financial Services.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend several sections of Massachusetts General Laws related to insurance coverage for mammograms by replacing the word "women" with the word "patients" in specific instances. This change, found in sections of Chapter 175 (Sections 47G and 110), Chapter 176A (Section 8J), and Chapter 176B (Section 4I), aims to broaden the scope of these provisions to include all individuals, not just women, who may require mammograms, reflecting a more inclusive approach to healthcare coverage.
