President Donald Trump announced a deal to "dramatically slash" the cost of In vitro fertilization (IVF) and fertility drugs, hailing it as a "historic victory" for women and families.
A single round of IVF in the U.S. can cost up to $25,000, sometimes even more. Trump stated,
"We want to make it easier for all couples to have babies, raise children, and start the families they've always dreamed about."
Trump is also encouraging employers to cover IVF for employees, similar to vision or dental insurance. This announcement follows an executive order signed earlier this year to expand access to IVF and reduce treatment costs.
