IRDAI Ponders Over Insurance Cover for Infertility Treatment
The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) is considering the request to cover infertility as a disease under health insurance. The matter came to the fore after a PIL was raised in the Punjab and Haryana Court and the Centre wrote a letter to IRDAI and four other public sector insurance companies, including Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), to consider the request. The decision is expected shortly.
