The Equity in Fertility Treatment Act amends the definition of infertility and mandates health insurance coverage for in-vitro fertilization.
The Equity in Fertility Treatment Act amends the definition of infertility to include a person's inability to reproduce without medical intervention and a licensed physician's findings based on a patient's medical history. It mandates health insurance coverage for three cycles of completed oocyte retrievals and in-vitro fertilization with unlimited embryo transfers from fresh or frozen oocytes or embryos. Coverage may be subject to annual deductibles and coinsurance, but cannot be denied based on participation in fertility services provided by or to a third party.
