Version:

Removes discriminatory requirements for mandatory insurance coverage of in vitro fertilization procedures to create parity of coverage for same-sex couples, unmarried individuals, transgender persons, and opposite-sex couples for whom male infertility is the relevant factor.  Requires the insured or the insured's dependent spouse to have a history of infertility of at least six months' duration, rather than five years.  Includes need for medical intervention to conceive due to physiological or anatomical factors.
