NY S08093

Eliminates annual deductibles and coinsurance for screening and diagnostic breast cancer imaging (mammograms, ultrasounds, magnetic resonance imaging) for health insurance policies and contracts, effective January 1, 2017.

Requires all certified mammography facilities to provide extended hours for screening services on at least two days per week for at least two hours each day, including early morning (7-9 AM), evening (5-7 PM), or weekend hours (9 AM-5 PM).

Allows facilities to request waivers from extended hours requirements if they lack sufficient staff, are discontinuing services, or face other departmental-approved hardships.

Limits the no-deductible and no-coinsurance requirement to participating providers in an insurer's network, or non-participating providers only when the insurer lacks an in-network provider with appropriate training and experience.

Removes the exemption from breast cancer screening leave provisions for employees of cities with populations of one million or more, effective 90 days after enactment.
