Expanding Access to Fertility Treatment Amendment Act Becomes Law

 

After passage by the DC Council in June 2023, approval by Mayor Bowser in July 2023, and the required review by the US Congress, the Expanding Access to Fertility Treatment Amendment Act (DC Law 25-49) became law on September 6, 2023.

Under the new law, health insurance policies are required to provide coverage for infertility diagnosis, infertility treatment, and standard fertility preservation services. The law applies to health insurers issuing group health benefit plans in the District (including small group coverage purchased through the DC Health Link), effective January 1, 2025. Employers sponsoring health plans issued in DC should be aware of this development and contact their carriers for further information.
