Amends the Illinois Public Aid Code. Subject to appropriation, provides for Medicaid eligibility for uninsured persons who are not otherwise eligible for medical assistance who have been certified and referred by the Department of Public Health as having been screened and found to need diagnostic evaluation or treatment, or both, for prostate or testicular cancer. Provides for eligibility for so long as the person needs treatment for the cancer.
