Cost

Paying for Fertility Treatment: 

At Oregon Reproductive Medicine, some patients come to us, are diagnosed and treated, and are out the door with a positive pregnancy test for just a few hundred dollars. But others have a more complex case and finances can quickly become a concern.

Our financial consultants work with established patients to: determine insurance coverage, give estimates for treatment options, refer to outside financing resources, establish required deposit accounts, explain detailed bills, and more.

Nobody likes to contemplate big medical bills. But we hope that our compassionate and caring business office staff will make the process a little bit easier. Like the receptionists, the nurses, doctors, and embryologists, our finance staff is here to help you realize your dream.

Insurance coverage and reimbursement for the testing and treatment of infertility is complex. Once you have become a patient with us our medical billing and insurance specialists will be happy to assist you by completing an in depth insurance benefit determination. They are available to answer any insurance-related questions you may have.

Prior to treatment, we encourage you to take the lead in contacting your insurance company to better understand your plan benefits. To help you start with this we have summarized key points about insurance coverage below. The first question to ask with regard to our clinic’s services is if the specific plan you have offers infertility coverage, or coverage for fertility testing. The vast majority of plans fall into one of three categories when it comes to infertility coverage.
