An Act relative to mandatory coverage for certain health screenings for firefighters

This bill requires health insurance plans to cover specific cancer screenings (bladder, cervical, lung, and testicular) for firefighters without any out-of-pocket costs. It directly affects all firefighters - permanent, part-time, volunteer, and reserve - when referred by their primary care physician. The key provision mandates that insurance plans must cover the full cost of these screenings, eliminating deductibles, co-payments, or other cost-sharing requirements. This applies to all insurance plans covering firefighters, including those under Chapters 32A, 175, 176A, 176B, or 176G of the General Laws.
