Law Would Aid In Follow Up Breast Exams

Missouri women could soon save hundreds of dollars if they need a follow-up exam to diagnose breast cancer. Governor Mike Parson has not said yet whether he will sign a bill that would require health insurance companies to cover the full cost of these exams. Dr. Amy Patel, a UMKC radiology professor, hopes the governor signs the legislation.

 

 

The bill is sponsored by Representative Brenda Shields of St. Joseph.
