Adds basal cell carcinoma and skin cancer to the list of compensable cancers.

Changes the presumption for a finding of cancer compensable under the program to a standard of clear and convincing evidence that it was not sustained as a result of employment at the atomic weapons employer's facility.

Includes radiation and heavy metals, or a combination of them, as toxic substances exposure to which may cause a covered illness.
