Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s Medicaid program to cover fertility preservation services for individuals whose infertility is caused by medically necessary treatments. Specifically, it addresses ‘iatrogenic infertility,’ meaning infertility resulting from medical procedures. This means that if a patient undergoing treatment like chemotherapy or surgery experiences infertility as a result, Medicaid would cover procedures to preserve their fertility before the treatment occurs. The bill also expands Medicaid coverage to include a broader range of services, such as diabetes management and palliative care.
