Financing Treatments

At times, paying for fertility treatments may feel as stressful as the dealing with the treatments themselves.

Some clinics have relationships with specific banks to assist with loan applications for fertility treatments at their facilities. Some credit companies now also offer financing programs specifically for individuals undergoing fertility treatments. In addition, some centers offer alternate payment plans to patients considering Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) treatments.

You may also wish to speak to an accountant or financial planner about which payment option is best suited for you. These individuals may also have knowledge about tax exemptions or write–offs that could make your treatment less costly.

If you undergo medical evaluation and treatment, be sure to keep good records of all your expenses, bills and interactions with your insurance company.

If you'd like help understanding the many different payment options available to you, call Fertility LifeLines™ at 1-866-LETS-TRY (1-866-538-7879). A Fertility LifeLines™ benefits specialist can help you gain a clearer perspective.
