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, would require health insurance plans to cover the treatment of infertility, including non-experimental assisted reproductive technology procedures, if the plan already covers obstetrical services. It would also require coverage for standard fertility preservation services when a medically necessary treatment may cause iatrogenic (medically-induced) infertility. The bill defines key terms like "infertility" and "assisted reproductive technology," and sets limitations on the coverage of assisted reproductive technology. The bill would apply these requirements to group health plans, individual health insurance plans, the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, TRICARE, and Medicaid. The goal is to ensure that the ability to have a family is not denied due to a lack of insurance coverage for medically necessary infertility treatments.
