OH SB64

Requires health insuring corporations to cover colorectal cancer examinations and laboratory tests for nonsymptomatic individuals age 50 and older, and for younger individuals at high risk due to personal or family history of colorectal cancer, adenomatous polyps, inflammatory bowel disease, or hereditary cancer syndromes.

Mandates coverage of flexible sigmoidoscopy every five years, colonoscopy every ten years, double contrast barium enema every five years, CT colonography every five years, and stool DNA tests or annual fecal screening tests.

Applies the same colorectal cancer screening coverage requirements to individual and group sickness and accident insurance policies and public employee benefit plans delivered, issued, or renewed in Ohio.

Requires Ohio's Medicaid program to provide identical colorectal cancer examination and laboratory test coverage for eligible nonsymptomatic recipients.

Allows coverage to be subject to existing policy terms, conditions, and restrictions, and permits insurers to negotiate payment agreements with nonparticipating providers; excludes disease-specific and supplemental-only policies from requirements.
