Public Health - Mammograms - Arterial Calcification Notice

Summary

The bill mandates that any facility performing mammograms include a specific warning about breast arterial calcification in the result letter sent to patients, alongside the existing breast‑density information required by federal law. It applies to hospitals, clinics, radiology practices and similar centers, but not to Department of Veterans Affairs facilities. The notice is intended to alert women to possible cardiovascular risk and encourage discussion with their physicians.
