What it does
The No-Cost Breast Examinations in Medicaid Act of 2026 would amend the Social Security Act to require that diagnostic and supplemental breast examinations be provided without cost sharing under the Medicaid program. It defines these examinations based on National Comprehensive Cancer Network Guidelines and adds screening mammography as a mandatory Medicaid benefit when graded A or B by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. The changes would apply to medical assistance furnished one year after the bill’s enactment, affecting Medicaid beneficiaries needing breast cancer screening or follow-up exams.
