Beginning July 1, 2026, Connecticut's correction commissioner may arrange breast cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment for women in department custody. The law allows care at a state-licensed health care institution closer to the correctional facility than the University of Connecticut Health Center. For a required screening or diagnostic mammogram, this option applies when the correctional facility cannot provide it on-site. The law allows these arrangements but does not require the commissioner to use an outside institution.
