Summary

The bill requires Connecticut’s Medicaid program to pay for fertility diagnostic services, standard fertility preservation (including gamete storage), and specific infertility treatments such as ovulation‑enhancing drugs and intrauterine insemination. It applies to all Medicaid enrollees and prohibits the agency from imposing waiting periods or discrimination based on age, disability, donor gametes, or other protected characteristics. The measure also directs the state to study whether in‑vitro fertilization can be covered and to report the costs.
