Creates provisions relating to insurance coverage for fertility treatments
This bill requires health insurance plans covering more than 25 employees to include fertility treatments if they already offer pregnancy-related benefits. Specifically, plans must cover various procedures, such as in vitro fertilization and artificial insemination, provided the patient has tried less costly options, has not had four failed egg retrievals, and receives care at accredited medical facilities. The law includes an exception for religious institutions or organizations that object to these procedures based on their moral or religious beliefs.
