President Donald Trump signed an executive order today aimed at developing policy recommendations to enhance access to and affordability of in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments. The order directs the assistant to the president for domestic policy to submit a list of policy recommendations within 90 days to protect IVF access and reduce out-of-pocket and health plan costs for IVF treatment.
The executive order emphasizes the administration's commitment to ensuring reliable access to IVF treatment by easing unnecessary statutory or regulatory burdens to make IVF treatment more affordable for individuals and families.
During the signing at Mar-a-Lago, Florida, President Trump expressed his belief that women, families, and husbands would greatly appreciate the initiative. The order signifies a proactive step towards addressing the challenges faced by many individuals seeking IVF treatment.
