Reinserts the provisions of the bill, as amended by House Amendment No. 1, with the following changes. In the Illinois Insurance Code and the Illinois Public Aid Code, requires coverage of molecular breast imaging (MBI) of an entire breast or breasts if a mammogram demonstrates heterogeneous or dense breast tissue or when medically necessary as determined by a physician licensed to practice medicine in all of its branches, physician assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse (rather than as determined by a physician licensed to practice medicine in all of its branches). Amends the Counties Code, the Illinois Municipal Code, and the Health Maintenance Organization Act. In provisions concerning coverage for mammograms, provides that coverage for certain types of mammography shall be made available to patients of a specified age (rather than only women of a specified age). Makes changes to require coverage for molecular breast imaging. Effective January 1, 2026.
