[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s the thing. You need a next generation to buy your assets and care for you when you’re old. That doesn’t require subsidizing IVF. Insurance covers unanticipated risks like a c section and general OB care which would apply to the vast majority of patients and every future child. That’s actually good policy for supporting the next generation. IVF isn’t - it’s expensive and uncertain and creates perverse incentives to pursue when it may not be successful if you have no financial commitment to the process. [/quote]

If you didn't plan ahead and you need some kid to take care of you when you're old, that's on you.  I don't want to pay for it.[/quote]

Oh sweetie but you do. You do need future kids because our entire capital system requires it. Even the ones that you’re not having. That’s why general OB care is covered and IVF isn’t because one is an issue the affects the vast majority of people and the other isn’t. [/quote]

You were actually right the first time. IVF isn't covered because having children is not a right. So cover your own fertility issues including your pregnancy.

Lots of diseases  more rare than infertility are covered by insurance and the vast majority of people do not suffer from these conditions.[/quote]
