Finiancial Information

Costs for an ART cycle vary from program to program. Cycle prices vary according to the type selected. Before initiating ART, you should discuss financial arrangements with the billing personnel.

Additional expenses may include loss of wages from time missed at work and expenses incurred due to travel and/or accommodations. In addition, the medications utilized in ART procedures (human menopausal gonadotropins, hCG and GnRH analogs) are very expensive. All of these factors must be considered in determining the financial feasibility of participation in an ART program.

Programs offering ART are sensitive to the tremendous financial investment that couples make to participate in their program. We continuously strive to keep our costs manageable, and we continue to seek funded research protocols in which ART costs for the participants may be defrayed. In addition, through the efforts of our professional organizations, we are actively working at both the state and national levels to try to obtain insurance coverage for ART.
