On May 3, 2023, Gov. Moore signed HB 815/SB 965 into law. The law requires health insurers in Maryland to cover follow-up diagnostic lung cancer screenings without cost-sharing, with the exception of required cost-sharing under a qualified HDHP prior to meeting the deductible. As of January 1, 2024, the law applies to policies issued or delivered in the state. Employers sponsoring health plans in Maryland should be aware of this development and contact their carriers for further information.
