MI SB1150

Extends occupational cancer presumption coverage to full-time, part-time, and volunteer firefighters who have 60 months of active service and are exposed to fire suppression, rescue, or emergency medical services hazards.

Creates the "first responder presumed coverage fund" as a separate state treasury fund to pay cancer benefits for firefighters when they suspend claims against their employers.

Presumes specified cancers (respiratory tract, bladder, skin, brain, kidney, blood, thyroid, testicular, prostate, and lymphatic) arise from employment unless rebutted by evidence of substantial tobacco use within 10 years before diagnosis.

Requires claimants to first apply for and exhaust any available pension benefits before receiving benefits from the presumed coverage fund.

Directs the director to develop application processes, maintain fund standards on the department website, approve or deny claims within 30 days, and submit annual reports to the legislature on claims received, approved, paid amounts, and administrative costs.
