What this bill would do

The "Right to IVF Act of 2026" seeks to protect and expand nationwide access to assisted reproductive technology (ART) and intrauterine insemination (IUI). It establishes statutory rights for individuals, health care providers, and insurers to ensure these services are not obstructed by state limitations. The bill mandates specific coverage for members of the uniformed services and their families, as well as for veterans. Additionally, it requires group health plans, State Medicaid plans, and Medicare to provide coverage for these services. Finally, it aims to ensure fairness within the Federal Employees Health Benefits program.
