SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Family Act of 2013''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The American Society of Reproductive Medicine 
        recognizes infertility as a disease, and the Centers for 
        Disease Control and Prevention have described infertility as an 
        emerging public health priority in the United States. Globally, 
        the World Health Organization also formally recognizes 
        infertility as a disease.
            (2) According to the Centers for Disease Control and 
        Prevention, approximately 3,000,000 Americans suffer from 
        infertility.
            (3) A portion of those 3,000,000 people are cancer 
        survivors who were diagnosed as infants, children, or young 
        adults. Their treatments included chemotherapy, radiation, and 
        surgery which have led to irreparable damage to their 
        reproductive systems.
            (4) Military families notably are also impacted by 
        infertility as a result of lower extremity war injuries arising 
        from the perils of modern warfare. For active duty individuals, 
        frequent changes in permanent duty station, combat deployments, 
        and training rotations complicate access to fertility 
        treatments. In addition, active duty individuals or veterans 
        have no coverage for in vitro fertilization (IVF) through their 
        military health insurance and must pay out of pocket for those 
        expenses, even within military treatment facilities.
            (5) For many, the cost of treatment for the disease of 
        infertility is prohibitive. According to the American Society 
        for Reproductive Medicine, the cost per cycle of IVF is 
        approximately $12,500, and on average couples require at least 
        2 cycles. Many couples have to choose between their desire to 
        establish a family and their future financial well-being.
            (6) Medical insurance coverage for infertility treatments 
        is sparse and inconsistent at the State level. Only 8 States 
        have passed laws to require comprehensive infertility coverage, 
        and under those State laws employer-sponsored plans are exempt; 
        therefore, coverage for treatments such as IVF is limited. 
        According to Mercer's 2005 National Survey of Employer-
        Sponsored Health Plans, IVF was voluntarily covered by 19 
        percent of large employer-sponsored health plans and only 11 
        percent of small employer-sponsored health plans. Even in 
        States with coverage mandates, out-of-pocket expenses for these 
        treatments are significant.
            (7) According to the latest National Survey of Family 
        Growth, African-American and Hispanic women are more likely to 
        be infertile than Caucasian women, yet studies indicate that 
        they are less likely to use infertility services.

SEC. 3. CREDIT FOR CERTAIN INFERTILITY TREATMENTS.

    (a) In General.--Subpart A of part IV of subchapter A of chapter 1 
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by inserting before

                shall be determined without regard to sections 911,

                chapter.
                    ``(B) Grants.--No credit shall be allowed under

Defines &quot;qualified infertility treatment expenses&quot; as amounts paid for the treatment of infertility via in vitro fertilization if such treatment is provided by a licensed physician, surgeon, or other medical practitioner and is administered with respect to a diagnosis of infertility by a physician licensed in the United States.
