1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, an insurer that issues a policy of group health insurance shall include in the policy coverage for any procedure or service for the preservation of fertility consistent with established medical practice or any guidelines published by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine or the American Society of Clinical Oncology, or their successor organizations, that is medically necessary to preserve fertility because the insured has been diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer and: (a) The cancer may, in the judgment of a provider of health care, directly or indirectly cause infertility; or (b) The insured is expected to receive medical treatment for the cancer and such treatment may directly or indirectly cause infertility. 2. For the purposes of subsection 1, a medical treatment may directly or indirectly cause infertility if the treatment has a potential side effect of impaired fertility, as established by the American Society of Clinical Oncology or the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, or their successor organizations. 3. An insurer that is affiliated with a religious organization is not required to provide the coverage required by subsection 1 if the insurer objects on religious grounds. Such an insurer shall, before the issuance of a policy of group health insurance that is subject to the requirements of subsection 1 and before the renewal of such a policy, provide to the group policyholder or prospective insured, as applicable, written notice of the coverage that the insurer refuses to provide pursuant to this subsection. 4. A policy of group health insurance that is subject to the provisions of this chapter and is delivered, issued for delivery or renewed on or after January 1, 2026, has the legal effect of including the coverage required by subsection 1, and any provision of the policy or the renewal that conflicts with the provisions of this section is void.
