Plain-English Summary

This bill would increase funding and support for research into lung cancer in women and expand access to preventive screening services like CT scans for women at risk. It aims to address the fact that lung cancer affects women differently than men and that many women develop it without smoking histories. The legislation would help doctors better understand, detect, and prevent lung cancer in female patients.
