Like success rates, the cost for infertility treatment varies widely between clinics. The best way to assess your ultimate cost is to ask for a copy of each clinic’s itemized charges by procedure. It is important to determine if there are any additional charges not included in the fee schedule such as hospital charges, medication costs and testing fees.
Although the cost of treatment is important, the outcome is more important. A good formula to use is the cost versus take-home baby rate for your recommended procedure.
Many fertility center offer the service of investigating insurance benefits for you, or you can check with your employer’s human resources department. Keep the possibility of fertility treatment in mind when your employer offers a choice of health care plans during enrollment.
