Why this petition matters

Insurance Coverage for Medically Necessary Fertility Preservation:

Iatrogenic infertility is infertility that arises as a result or side effect of a needed medical treatment primarily for cancer treatment but also for sickle cell anemia, lupus or certain autoimmune diseases.

10,000 New Yorkers annual are diagnosed during their reproductive years.

Cost is the #1 barrier to fertility preservation.

Fertility preservation costs between $10,000 - $15,000

CT, MA, NJ and RI all COVER these costs.

This bill goes to the State Senate in January!! Let’s make some noise to get it passed! 

Thank you!

From a cancer survivor and mother of a two year old who was blessed to be able to preserve her fertility and make a family. My dream is to make that a reality for more women.
