        AN ACT to amend the public  health  law,  in  relation  to  supplemental
          screenings
 
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. The public health law is amended by adding  a  new  section
     2  2404-c to read as follows:
     3    §  2404-c. Breast cancer; duty of providers of mammography services to
     4  notify and inform.  Every provider of mammography services shall,  if  a
     5  patient's  mammogram demonstrates dense breast tissue, provide notifica-

     6  tion to such patient that shall include, but  not  be  limited  to,  the
     7  following  information,  in  any summary of the mammography report sent,
     8  pursuant to the  federal  mammography  quality  standards  act,  to  the
     9  patient:
 
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD15074-10-2

        A. 9586--D                          2
 
     1    Your  mammogram  shows  that your breast tissue is dense. Dense breast
     2  tissue is very common and is not abnormal. However, dense breast  tissue
     3  can make it harder to find cancer on a mammogram and may also be associ-

     4  ated with an increased risk of breast cancer.
     5    This information about the result of your mammogram is given to you to
     6  raise  your awareness. Use this information to talk to your doctor about
     7  your own risks for breast cancer. At that time, ask your doctor if  more
     8  screening  tests  might  be useful, based on your risk. A report of your
     9  results was sent to your physician.
    10    For the purposes of this section dense breast tissue shall mean heter-
    11  ogeneously dense or extremely dense  tissue  as  defined  in  nationally
    12  recognized guidelines or systems for breast imaging reporting of mammog-
    13  raphy  screening,  including,  but  not  limited  to, the breast imaging
    14  reporting and data system of the American College of Radiology, and  any

    15  equivalent new terms, as such guidelines or systems are updated.
    16    § 2. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after
    17  it shall have become a law.
