Medical Coverage for Fertility Treatments
- Many medical procedures involved in your egg retrieval are covered by private insurance. Please review your private plan, if you have one, to see if it covers fertility treatments
- Before you begin, please ask your insurance company to provide you with a written explanation of what your specific coverage includes. It will be helpful to know what they cover as you prepare to make this important decision.
- Check with your employers to see if you have options. Things like “Flex benefits” or a “Healthcare Spending Account” may help off-set some costs.
- Finally, do you think fertility treatment coverage at your company would be beneficial? Reach out to talk about getting it listed on your company policy.
Fertility Medication
- The stimulation part of your egg freezing cycle will need special fertility medications. Costs for fertility medications will vary. You may have full coverage, partial coverage, or no coverage for medication, depending on your extended health plan.
- Your insurance company may need pre-authorization regarding your medications. Your Evolve team can provide you with a letter for your insurance provider that outlines the medications that are part of your treatment and include the DINs (Drug Identification Numbers).
- Always check with your insurance plan to determine if there are total amount limits, total treatment cycle limits, yearly limits, or lifetime limits. Do this before you submit a claim, so that you can optimize your coverage.
