Requires health insurance coverage for coronary artery calcium screening under certain circumstances.

Summary

The bill requires all New Jersey health insurance contracts—including hospital, medical, health service corporations, individual and group policies—to pay for coronary artery calcium (CAC) screening for members who are 45 years or older or who have an intermediate risk of heart disease. Coverage must be provided at least every five years, with more frequent testing allowed if a doctor deems it necessary. This expands preventive heart‑health services without adding new taxes or fees.
