Allows Medicare Part B to cover additional FDA‑cleared or -approved lung cancer screening tests as preventive services for eligible individuals. The Secretary of HHS must set how often those tests can be done and how much Medicare will pay, after consulting appropriate clinical organizations, and must use the formal national coverage determination process except for one statutory exception. The change takes effect on the date the law is enacted and applies to Part B coverage on or after that date.
Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
