California’s SB 729 Expands Fertility Care Coverage


We commend California and Governor Newsom for enabling a significant expansion of fertility care this week. By signing SB 729 into law, more than nine million Californians – a group larger than the individual populations of 38 states – will gain insurance coverage for the diagnosis and treatment of infertility. This is an incredible milestone on the path to ensuring all Americans can access treatment for an infertility diagnosis.

Advancing Equitable Fertility Care

Since we opened our doors in 1999, we have been at the forefront of equitable access to treatment, and this bill is a big win for access to care.

The Widespread Impact of Infertility

Infertility affects 1 in 6 Americans and cuts across all social and economic divides. For patients and families struggling with infertility, including same-sex couples and unpartnered individuals, assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be their only option to get pregnant.

California’s Leadership in Expanding Fertility Care

We applaud California’s leadership and inclusivity and stand in support of all the individuals and families who the passing of this bill will help.

Our Support Across California

Across our IVI RMA North America Network, we’re proud to support California patients with offices in Northern California (San Francisco, Palo Alto, Danville), Southern California (Los Angeles), and San Diego (Pearl Mini-IVF). We provide them with the treatment and support they need to build their families, and we look forward to helping an even larger number of Californians realize their family-creation dreams.

A Vision for Nationwide Fertility Access

We are encouraged by the momentum in California to expand fertility coverage nationwide and remain steadfast in our commitment to providing evidence-based fertility care to the greatest number of patients possible. They say, ‘As California Goes, So Goes the Nation,’ and we hope not only that other states follow this impressive expansion but that this sets off a wave of new research, innovation, and improvement in fertility science and technology.
