This bill proposes the creation of a new section in the North Dakota Century Code that mandates health insurance coverage for public employees' fertility health benefits. It defines key terms related to infertility and fertility treatment, including "diagnosis of infertility," "fertility treatment," and "medically necessary." The bill requires the public employees retirement system to provide coverage for expenses related to infertility diagnosis and fertility treatments, including specific procedures such as intrauterine insemination and in vitro fertilization. Coverage must adhere to established best practices and cannot impose limitations that differ from maternity benefits or impose pre-existing condition exclusions.

Additionally, the bill outlines a reporting requirement for the public employees retirement system to assess the impact of these fertility health benefits on health insurance programs and to make recommendations for future coverage. The provisions of this Act will apply to health benefits coverage starting after June 30, 2025, and will expire on June 30, 2027, unless extended by subsequent legislation.
