Why D is correct
C.R.S. § 10-16-104(10) requires Colorado policies to cover an annual prostate cancer screening for men over 50, and for men over 40 in high-risk categories. The screening includes the PSA blood test and a digital rectal exam, and it is not subject to deductibles.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) 40 applies only to men in high-risk categories, not to all covered men.
- B) 45 is not a screening age in Colorado law; the general trigger is over 50.
- C) 65 is the Medicare eligibility age, not the Colorado prostate screening age.
Memory hook
50 for most men, 40 if high risk — PSA plus exam.
