SB 900 - This act modifies provisions relating to assisted reproductive technology. DEFINITION OF UNBORN CHILD (Section 1.205) This act modifies the definition of "unborn child" or "unborn children" to exclude human embryos created through assisted reproductive technology, including in vitro fertilization, prior to successful implantation in the uterus. These provisions are identical to SB 605 (2025), substantially similar to SB 1486 (2024), and similar to HB 2845 (2024). DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF INFERTILITY (Section 376.1211) This act requires certain health benefit plans providing pregnancy-related benefits to include coverage for the diagnosis and treatment of infertility, as described in the act. These provisions contain an exception for health benefit plans issued by or to religious institutions or organizations. These provisions are substantially similar to HB 487 (2025). TAYLOR MIDDLETON
