News from RESOLVE regarding legislation in Maryland.

Great news! A bill has been introduced in the Maryland House of Delegates that would change the current infertility insurance mandate to allow more people to access insurance benefits. Currently the waiting period for insurance coverage is two years for a history of infertility before the insurance mandate kicks in. House Bill 30, introduced by Delegate Jeff Waldstreicher, would change the waiting period to ONE YEAR. This would allow a greater number of women and men in Maryland to access much needed medical care for their infertility, and get started building their family sooner. RESOLVE fully supports this Bill and is asking for you to show your support too.

On January 28 the Health and Government Operations Committee will hear testimony on this Bill. We need the Committee to support this Bill so that it moves to the next step in the legislative process. If your Delegate is a member of this Committee, we need you to contact them TODAY and show your support. Visit the RESOLVE website to learn more details and to take action!
