Good Evening,
President Trump mentioned that he wants to make IVF covered by either the government or insurance companies. While this is incredibly important, I think any family planning should be considered as part of that initiative. Such as IUI, medicated cycles, etc… i say this because I myself am having to pay out of pocket $1100 each cycle to try to conceive because IVF isn’t an immediate choice per our provider, she would rather try medicated cycles and IUI first before IVF. IVF isn’t the only thing not covered by insurance. My medications and everything included in my non IVF fertility cycles are not covered by insurance. My single injection is $300. The rest of the $1100 is for ultrasounds and my prescriptions. That’s a lot of money I can use on food, gas, or put into savings.
