What Marriott says it covers
Read on Oct 11, 2026. The words in quotation marks are the source's own.
Fertility treatment is covered; IVF is not named
“Through partnerships with health insurance companies focused in specific areas such as Progyny, eligible associates enrolled in select medical plans have access to fertility benefits, including coverage for advanced fertility treatments, egg freezing, and personalized support from dedicated care advocates.”
Marriott does not state a dollar or cycle limit on its public pages. That does not mean the benefit is unlimited: the limit is in the plan document its benefits center can send you.
Run by Progyny
Progyny administers the fertility benefit for Marriott, so it is the one to call about which clinics are in network and what needs approval first.

Can part-time Marriott workers use it?
Eligibility decides whether a benefit is worth taking a job for, so this is the line to confirm before anything else.
Marriott does not say on its public pages whether part-time workers qualify (the benefit is for eligible associates enrolled in select medical plans).
You have to be enrolled in a Marriott medical plan to use the benefit, so its premiums and deductible are part of what the coverage costs you.

Six things to ask Marriott before you count on it
A public benefits page is a summary. The plan document for your own plan and location is what the plan pays by.
- 1.What is the lifetime maximum, and do fertility drugs count toward it or have their own limit?
- 2.When does coverage start after my hire date, and how many hours a week do I need to keep it?
- 3.Do I need an infertility diagnosis, or prior authorization, before treatment is covered?
- 4.Which fertility clinics near me are in network, and what do I pay if mine is not?
- 5.What are the deductible, the coinsurance and the out-of-pocket maximum on the plan the benefit sits in?
- 6.Are egg freezing, donor eggs or sperm, genetic testing of embryos and embryo storage covered?
State insurance laws reach only fully-insured plans, and 67% of covered US workers are in self-funded employer plans, which set their own fertility benefits whatever the state requires. About 50% of employers with 500 or more workers now cover IVF. A large employer's plan is usually self-funded (80% of covered workers at large firms are in one), so what Marriott chooses to cover matters more than your state's IVF insurance law.
