[quote=Anonymous][quote]insurance companies shouldn't have to cover any infertility treatments for anyone. The should provide basics like birth control, prenatal care and labor and delivery, that's it.[/quote] At least you are intellectually consistent. Unlike the poster who is speaking about "medical necessity." Not to bash that poster specifically; I just don't think he or she has thought through what they are saying. As has been explained, single women or lesbians don't get up one day and decide that IVF is just a fun thing they want to try that month. Much like with married women, they try other, less expensive options first. IVF is presented as an option when there is a medical diagnosis of infertility. And if you want to say that older women should not get the benefits of insurance coverage for fertility treatments, are you willing to deny those treatments to older married women, too? Or is it just single women who are out of luck. And what age is too old for you? [/quote]
