MO HB3323

Converts Missouri's existing prostate cancer "pilot" programs into permanent programs by removing the pilot designation and exempting them from the Missouri Sunset Act's automatic expiration requirements

Establishes two prostate cancer programs within the Department of Health and Senior Services—one in an urban area (city not within a county) and one in a rural area—funded through cooperative agreements with nonprofit entities such as the Missouri Foundation for Health

Eligibility includes uninsured or economically challenged men (income up to 150% of federal poverty level) age 50 or older, or high-risk men ages 35-49 on physician advice

Program services may include prostate cancer screening, PSA testing, referral services including mental health assessments, treatment for diagnosed individuals, support groups, and outreach/education activities

Grants to administer the program shall be distributed to local health departments and federally qualified health centers upon appropriation, with required reporting to the governor and general assembly after three years
