A 5195 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires health insurance coverage for coronary artery calcium screening under certain circumstances.

This New Jersey bill mandates that health insurance plans cover coronary artery calcium screening tests for eligible members. It applies to individuals aged 45 and older or those with an intermediate risk of heart disease as determined by a doctor using standard medical scoring tools. Insurance companies must provide this coverage every five years, or more often if a healthcare provider recommends it due to specific health conditions. The law requires these screenings to be treated with the same coverage benefits as other medical conditions across various types of health insurance contracts.
