Don’t panic! The financial counselors at RHS are always here to provide you with information and options for financing your infertility journey.
Yes, treating infertility can be costly. RHS does participate with several insurance plans, but infertility is often excluded from health insurance coverage. Because we know that your finances should be the least of your worries, and since we require pre-payment for all services, we meet with each couple individually to determine their best financial route right from the start. We determine what level of insurance coverage exists, and if no coverage exists, these couples are considered “self-payers.”
For self-payers, two popular options are available at RHS beyond the traditional out-of-pocket payment (cash, check, credit card):
RHS has streamlined the loan process to make IVF an affordable option. We partner with Dollar Bank to offer our patients a significant discount on loans.
IVF Cost Sharing is an innovative program offered by RHS which allows eligible patients to reduce out-of-pocket costs by purchasing a series of three IVF sessions in advance.
By purchasing three cycles at one time, patients pay less than they would for three individual cycles at the traditional fee-for-service rate. Please contact any RHS financial counselor to obtain the current costs for the IVF Cost Sharing Program.
RHS is always open to discussing payment options with concerned IVF candidates. If you would like any additional information on the payment options mentioned or would like to request an appointment with one of our financial counselors, please call us at 412-731-8000 or 800-318-3144.
I dont believe any of the “cost helpers”, my husband and i both have a decent job, but we were turned down for the “low interest loan” now our dream of having a family will never come true.. all false hope
RHS offers to meet with each and every patient to go over the cost of an IVF cycle. We provide each patient with a cost sheet along with a financial packet which includes information about discounted loans from Dollar Bank. Our financial advisors will be happy to go over all options in detail with anyone who’s interested.
Jackie, I would be more than happy to meet with you to discuss all your financial options. Please contact our office at 412-731-8000.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
Dawn
we have already met with you, and were turned down for all loans.. the only way to pay is for us to save it up.. which will probably never happen, since i lost my job.. so, there really isnt anything to talk about…
