BILL NUMBER:S5569
Title of bill
An act to amend the insurance law, in relation to insurance coverage of in vitro fertilization treatments
Purpose
This bill would require insurance coverage of in vitro fertilization treatments.
Justification
New York State prohibits the exclusion of insurance coverage for the diagnosis and treatment of a correctable medical condition, solely because the condition results in infertility. However, coverage for in vitro fertilization (IVF) is currently excluded. This bill would change that and require coverage for IVF.
