Do egg freezing expenses have to be paid out of pocket in order to get reimbursed? Prior to egg freezing I called UHC to enroll with the program. After egg retrieval I emailed pathways to parenthood with my claims of anything I paid for prescriptions and appts after insurance. They told me deductibles, copays, and coinsurance are my responsibility and not further reimbursable. Storage is billed annually so I have to wait for reimbursement. Confused what the benefit actually covers

This is right the deductibles and co pays were out of pocket and egg freezing you have to wait until the cost has been incurred to submit receipts for expense payback.

Hi there going through this process right now and hearing mixed messages from EY on what they actually cover. I was initially told that medication is reimbursed through pathways to parenthood program via payroll, but now I am being told nothing is reimbursed except egg storage. Has anyone had any luck getting reimbursed for any egg freezing expense outside of storage fee?

Hey guys! Currently in WM ops at Morgan Stanley for the past 1 year dealing with alternative lending, I’m super underpaid with 3 years of experience which is very frustrating. (73k). Have been at Morgan for 1 year and looking to come over to JPM for an ideal pay bump, but would like to get into IB type roll. Any insight on what I should expect or how to go about applying? Maybe even getting referred? I have a deep knowledge of investments and always felt inclined to go down this route.
