Argentina subsidizes IVF for own citizens
Argentina subsidizes IVF for own citizens with a new law.
Jul 19, 2013
Earlier this month Argentina joined the list of countries that finance in vitro fertilization (IVF) for its citizens.
Overwhelmingly passed by the Chamber of Deputies and previously approved by the Senate, IVF is now available to heterosexual couples, single women, and gay couples, whose unions are legal thanks to the passage of the first gay marriage law in Latin America in 2010.
President Cristina Kirchner summarized this development as “more rights, more inclusion, better country.”
The law’s basic tenet is that every adult, regardless of marital status, sexual orientation, gender expression, or economic situation, has a right to reproduce.
Now Argentina, like the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, Israel, and the province of Quebec, provides IVF as a matter of universal health care and services.
