In CNN Article, Harvey Cotton Discusses Employer Benefit Fertility Coverage and Alabama’s Embryo Ruling

Some 45% of large employers covered in vitro fertilization treatments as an employer benefit for talent acquisition and retention. The majority of companies with 500 or more workers do not require a diagnosis of infertility, which expands the IVF benefit to same-sex couples and single people who want children.

In a CNN article republished in Yahoo Finance, Benefits Consulting Group principal Harvey Cotton explains if an Alabama’s Supreme Court ruling that frozen embryos are children leads to fewer Alabama clinics providing IVF treatments, employers might consider adding or expanding travel coverage under their health plan so employees unable to access IVF treatment in Alabama can access care in other states.</p\>
