Couples often find out that infertility diagnosis and certain treatments are covered by their insurance. However, IVF and others may be excluded. California is one of 13 states with an infertility mandate in place. This is a “soft” mandate, which gives employers the option to offer infertility benefits. Since it is not required, not many employers will purchase the coverage. Since your employer makes the final decisions about health insurance, it might be a good idea to speak with your Human Resources representative to find out what it would take to have infertility treatments included in your benefits package.
