Bill Summary

Provide for the Preserving Fertility Act

AI Summary

This bill, the Preserving Fertility Act, requires insurance coverage for fertility preservation services for individuals who are diagnosed with cancer and face the possibility of infertility due to their medical treatment. The bill defines key terms like "iatrogenic infertility" and "standard fertility preservation services." It mandates that individual and group disability policies, as well as health maintenance organization (HMO) plans, cover the medically necessary costs for standard fertility preservation services when an insured member is diagnosed with cancer and the standard of care involves treatment that may cause infertility. The bill also creates a cancer screening account funded by voluntary donations when registering a vehicle, and this account will support cancer screening efforts.
