White House to Unveil Employer-Based IVF Coverage Initiative

The White House is preparing to announce a new policy initiative that would encourage employers to offer in vitro fertilization coverage as a separate benefit. This marks the administration’s first concrete action on an issue President Trump repeatedly promised to address during his campaign. The guidance comes after months of deliberation between IVF proponents and conservative groups with ethical concerns.
