Gay couple files first-of-its-kind class action against NYC for IVF benefits
A gay couple filed a first-of-its-kind class action lawsuit against New York City on Thursday alleging that the city’s health insurance plan is discriminatory because it doesn’t cover in vitro fertilization, or IVF, for male couples.
The lawsuit is the latest development in what has become a yearslong effort by the couple to get the city to change its IVF benefits, which the couple argues makes accommodations for heterosexual and lesbian couples, and for single women.

You would think an attorney would look up what IVF stands for...in vitro
fertilization
During in vitro fertilization,
mature eggs are collected from ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab.
As soon as one of these *** men produces a
viable mature egg, then the IVF benefit would probably be made available.
