We have received text from H.R. 9941: Right to IVF Act of 2026. This bill was received on 2026-07-23, and currently has 121 cosponsors.

Here is a short summary of the bill:

This bill would create a federal right to certain fertility treatments, especially in vitro fertilization (IVF), other assisted reproductive technology (ART), and intrauterine insemination (IUI). It would prevent states from blocking or limiting access to these services and would require many public and private health plans to cover them.

Access to Fertility Treatment

The bill would make IVF, ART, and IUI more broadly available by requiring coverage or access through:

• Military health care for service members and their families
• Veterans Affairs (VA) services for veterans
• Medicaid and Medicare
• Federal employee health plans
• Private insurance plans, subject to the bill’s rules

It would also bar state laws or rules that restrict these services, creating a nationwide baseline for access.

Insurance Coverage and Cost Rules

The bill would require health plans to cover these fertility services and include protections against discrimination in how they are offered. It would also require insurers and other covered entities to provide notice about the availability of these services. In some cases, the bill would limit how much patients can be charged out of pocket.

Veterans Affairs and Federal Health Programs

For the VA, the bill would expand reproductive health services for veterans and require the department to provide or arrange access to fertility treatment. It would also support more research related to reproductive health and fertility care.

For Medicare and Medicaid, the bill would require coverage of the relevant fertility treatments, making them available through those programs rather than leaving coverage up to individual state or plan decisions.

Enforcement

The bill would be enforced through both federal action and private lawsuits. That means individuals and organizations could bring legal claims if the required access or coverage is not provided, in addition to enforcement by the government.
