UPDATE: In May 2026, the Connecticut legislature passed HB5374, legislation that updates Connecticut’s fertility insurance law to reflect the current medical standard of care as articulated by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. The bill is now awaiting signature by the governor. Learn more.

What is FACT?

Fertility Access CT (FACT) is a campaign to improve access to fertility care so all Connecticut residents have access to the medical care they need to build their families. The campaign is comprised of organizations and individuals who support legislation that will ensure equity in access to family building and reproductive health care.

What does Promoting Equity in Fertility Care Legislation do?

The FACT campaign supports legislation that will update Connecticut law to do two key things:

1. Ensure the State’s Fertility Care Insurance Mandate Covers LGBTQ+ People

Under Connecticut’s current law, private insurance companies are only required to cover fertility treatments for people who have been diagnosed “infertile.” Infertility is defined in reference to heterosexual intercourse, so LGBTQ+ and single people who need to access fertility care are often excluded.

The new law would make Connecticut’s law inclusive of all families by requiring insurance coverage for LGBTQ+ and single individuals who need medical care to build their families, as well as people who are diagnosed infertile.

2. Provide that the State’s Medicaid Program (HUSKY) Covers Fertility Care

Connecticut’s current law requiring coverage for fertility care only applies to private insurance plans. The new law would ensure coverage includes HUSKY.
