Celebrating Pride Month: Embracing Every Fertility Preservation Journey with CryoFuture
At CryoFuture, we recognize and celebrate the diverse paths to parenthood and the importance of fertility preservation for our LGBTQ+ community. In honor of Pride Month, we want to highlight how California Senate Bill 600 (CA SB600) supports fertility preservation and how CryoFuture can be an integral part of this journey.
Understanding CA SB600 and Its Impact
CA SB600, signed into law in 2019, requires health insurance providers to cover fertility preservation services for patients undergoing medical treatments that may lead to iatrogenic infertility. Iatrogenic infertility refers to infertility caused by medical treatments, such as chemotherapy or surgery, which can harm reproductive organs and affect fertility. Notably, SB600 typically covers the first year of storage, after which patients must pay out-of-pocket.
Supporting LGBTQ+ Individuals in Their Fertility Preservation Journey
For many in the LGBTQ+ community, fertility preservation is a critical consideration, especially for those undergoing gender-affirming treatments or planning for future family-building. SB600 ensures that these individuals have access to fertility preservation services without the burden of prohibitive costs, allowing them to make empowered decisions about their reproductive futures.
