Protecting Nationwide Access to IVF and Assisted Reproductive Technology.

This Act establishes a federal statutory right guaranteeing citizens access to Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), including IVF, and related medical care. It prevents state and local governments from imposing unreasonable restrictions that would hinder patients seeking fertility treatment. Citizens also gain the right to control the use and disposition of their reproductive genetic materials.
Key points
Guarantees nationwide access to fertility treatments (ART) without unreasonable state or local limitations.
Patients are guaranteed the right to decide on the use or storage of their genetic materials (e.g., gametes, embryos).
Healthcare providers are protected in their right to offer ART services, and insurance providers can cover them.
Individuals whose rights are violated can sue state or local authorities to enforce access to treatment.
