Instructions for Determining Eligibility for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Benefit
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announces that the Secretary of Veterans Affairs issued Instruction of the Secretary 01-24 on March 28, 2024, which addresses the expansion of eligibility for IVF benefits to qualified Veterans and their spouses. VA's authority to provide assisted reproductive technology (ART) benefits to veterans and their spouses, including IVF coverage, references the benefits the Department of Defense (DoD) provides to active-duty service members. The primary benefit provided by VA under this authority is IVF. DoD previously limited the IVF benefit to service members who had a Category II or III injury or illness and who together with their legal spouse could produce and carry a child who is biologically their own. This limitation effectively limited the benefit to service members who were legally married and capable of producing their own sperm and eggs (gametes) within that marriage. On March 8, 2024, DoD amended its policy to cover IVF for service members with a qualifying injury or illness who are unmarried and to allow donated gametes and embryos.
