Access to Family Building Act

Bill 119 HR 2049, also known as the Access to Assisted Reproductive Technology Act, aims to prevent any restrictions on access to assisted reproductive technology (ART) and the medical care associated with it. This bill seeks to ensure that individuals seeking to use ART, such as in vitro fertilization or surrogacy, are not denied access to these services based on factors such as age, marital status, sexual orientation, or disability.

The bill prohibits health insurance plans from imposing any limitations or exclusions on coverage for ART procedures, ensuring that individuals have equal access to these services regardless of their personal circumstances. Additionally, the bill prohibits health care providers from refusing to provide medical care related to ART based on discriminatory reasons.

Overall, the Access to Assisted Reproductive Technology Act aims to promote equality and access to reproductive health care services for all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances. This bill is an important step towards ensuring that individuals have the ability to pursue their desired family-building options without facing unnecessary barriers or discrimination.
