Bill > HB1066

This bill, the Fertility Preservation for Chronic Conditions Act, requires health benefit policies in Georgia to provide coverage for medically necessary expenses related to standard fertility preservation services when a necessary medical treatment, such as surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy, may directly or indirectly cause iatrogenic (medically-induced) infertility. The bill defines key terms, including "health benefit policy," "iatrogenic infertility," and "standard fertility preservation services," and requires the Insurance Commissioner to promulgate rules and regulations to implement the provisions in accordance with guidelines from professional medical organizations. The bill becomes effective upon the Governor's approval or upon becoming law without such approval.
