Aetna has agreed to pay $2 million and update its coverage policies to settle a lawsuit alleging discrimination against LGBTQ beneficiaries in its fertility treatment coverage. The lawsuit claimed that Aetna's policy required LGBTQ customers to pay more out-of-pocket compared to heterosexual individuals.
