Precision Medicine Answers for Kids Today Act

Summary

Precision Medicine Answers for Kids Today Act This bill establishes programs and requires reporting relating to Medicaid coverage of genetic and genomic testing, particularly for children. Specifically, the bill establishes a demonstration program for up to 15 state Medicaid programs to cover genetic and genomic testing for certain individuals under the age of 21 (or a lower age, if the state chooses) and for former foster youth under the age of 26. Additionally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services must report on overall Medicaid coverage of such services and issue guidance for states on ways to increase coverage for children; the National Academy of Medicine must study the impact of this guidance as well as the general utility of genetic and genomic testing.
