How to Verify Your Coverage

  1. Ask your employer or plan administrator whether the plan is fully insured or self-funded.
  2. Request the plan document for infertility diagnosis, treatment, fertility preservation, medication, and laboratory benefits.
  3. Confirm prior authorization, network, age, diagnosis, cycle, and lifetime-limit requirements with the insurer.
  4. Ask the clinic billing team to verify both the clinic and laboratory providers for the services you expect to use.

Pending or Future Changes

AB 428 (Ch. 473/2025, signed June 10, 2025) requires coverage of fertility preservation for breast- and ovarian-cancer patients, with a religious-insurer opt-out. Amendment 891 moved the effective date to January 1, 2027 (some commercial trackers carry a stale 2026 date); the preservation flag stays false until it takes effect.
