AI Summary

This bill creates new provisions in Wisconsin law to require disability insurance policies and self-insured health plans to cover the "diagnosis of and treatment for infertility" as well as "standard fertility preservation services." The bill defines key terms like "infertility" and "standard fertility preservation service" and specifies that coverage must include at least 4 completed oocyte retrievals with unlimited embryo transfers. The bill prohibits insurers from imposing certain exclusions, limitations, or restrictions on this required coverage. The Commissioner of Insurance must promulgate rules to implement this new coverage requirement, and the bill provides for initial applicability of the new law.
