Abstract
Infertility is a prevalent disease that causes mental and financial distress for those who suffer from it. For Californians affected by infertility, treatment access is limited by high out-of-pocket costs, as the State does not currently require health insurance plans to cover the cost of fertility services. However, California is currently considering a bill (SB 729) to mandate coverage of fertility care in the large-group insurance market. We recommend the State Assembly pass SB 729 as written to increase the availability of fertility treatments in a politically and economically feasible way. Additionally, we recommend the State amend informed consent procedures to better relay the fertility care options available to patients. Individually and jointly, these measures will alleviate the financial burden of fertility healthcare on California families.
