Bill Summary
A BILL To require health insurance coverage for the treatment of infertility.
AI Summary
This bill, the Access to Infertility Treatment and Care Act, requires health insurance plans to provide coverage for the treatment of infertility, including non-experimental assisted reproductive technology procedures, if the plan covers obstetrical services. It also requires coverage for standard fertility preservation services when a medically necessary treatment may directly or indirectly cause infertility (known as "iatrogenic infertility"). The bill defines key terms like "infertility" and "assisted reproductive technology," and sets limitations on the coverage of assisted reproductive technology. Additionally, the bill prohibits insurance plans from incentivizing enrollees to decline infertility treatments or penalizing providers for offering such treatments. The bill also requires the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, TRICARE, and Medicaid to provide coverage for the treatment of infertility and prevention of iatrogenic infertility consistent with the requirements for private insurance.
