Cutler Statement on Passage of Biomarker Testing Legislation
HARRISBURG – House Republican Leader Bryan Cutler (R-Lancaster) on Thursday applauded the passage in the Senate of legislation he co-prime sponsored with Rep. Kyle Mullins (D-Lackawanna) that would require insurance coverage of biomarker testing in Pennsylvania.
“Today marks a significant milestone for health care in Pennsylvania. This crucial legislation will pave the way for improved diagnostics and personalized treatment options for Pennsylvanians dealing with complex diseases,” Cutler said.
“By ensuring biomarker tests are covered, we are advancing patient care and empowering health care providers to deliver more targeted treatments. I commend my colleagues for their dedication to advancing this important initiative, which will undoubtedly make a positive impact on the health and well-being of Pennsylvanians for years to come.”
House Bill 1754 passed the Pennsylvania Senate unanimously on Tuesday. It now heads to Gov. Josh Shapiro’s desk.

PennDOT Advises Property Owners of Permit Requirements
Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) reminded property owners that they must obtain a Highway Occupancy Permit (HOP) from PennDOT if planning property improvements that include constructing or altering a driveway that connects to a state highway.
HOPs for driveways are required by Section 420 of Title 36, also known as the State Highway Law. PennDOT urges property owners without one of these permits to obtain one to legitimize their driveway and retain it as evidence of compliance with the law.
Property owners may submit permit applications online or by using a paper application. Visit www.PennDOT.pa.gov, select “Highway Occupancy Permits” from the “Permits” page under “Doing Business” to access PennDOT’s Electronic Permitting System (ePermitting) and submit an online application. Printable versions of PennDOT Form M-950A or M-945A are accessible from the “Permits” page under “HOP-Related Forms.”
