Summary: The Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC) supports the proposed rule but argues that the "excepted fertility benefits" must be strictly limited to the treatment of diagnosed medical pathologies rather than "social infertility." They propose specific definitions, enforcement mechanisms, and ethical safeguards to ensure the benefits remain similar to limited-scope dental and vision plans.
