Summary
The bill directs the state Medicaid program (MO HealthNet) to pay for biomarker testing when it has proven clinical utility, and it obligates private insurers, nonprofit plans, and HMOs that issue contracts after August 28 2026 to do the same. It also sets up an easy‑to‑use exception process and limits the need for multiple biopsies. The measure does not require coverage for screening tests.
