IVF for Military Families Act

Bill 119 s 1231, also known as the "Fertility Treatment Access for Military Families Act," aims to make changes to title 10 of the United States Code in order to allow for fertility treatment to be covered under the TRICARE Program. TRICARE is the healthcare program for military service members, retirees, and their families.

The bill seeks to address the current lack of coverage for fertility treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) and other assisted reproductive technologies for military families. These treatments can be costly and are often not covered by insurance, leaving many military families struggling to afford the care they need to start or expand their families.

If passed, this bill would provide much-needed support for military families facing infertility issues, allowing them to access the same fertility treatments that are available to civilians with insurance coverage. This change would help alleviate the financial burden that many military families face when seeking fertility treatment. Overall, the "Fertility Treatment Access for Military Families Act" aims to ensure that military families have access to the care they need to build their families, regardless of their financial situation. This bill has the potential to make a significant impact on the lives of military families struggling with infertility.
