Trump announces a deal with a manufacturer to make a common fertility drug cheaper for IVF patients
October 16, 2025
Drugmaker EMD Serono has agreed to lower the cost of a common fertility medication through a deal with the Trump administration. President Donald Trump announced this on Thursday, along with new federal guidance encouraging employers to offer fertility coverage. The guidance allows companies to provide fertility benefits separately from major medical insurance. The discounted drug will be available on TrumpRx, with costs varying based on income. The administration’s move aims to make in vitro fertilization more affordable, although full coverage isn’t mandated. But the move falls far short of his promise as a candidate to make IVF treatment free.
