Hi fishes, has anyone actually had success getting pathways to reimburse. Every single time they deny me for an odd reason. Would love to just DM with someone as I’m feeling lost and annoyed.

I’ve ended up eating $700 in costs just because I’m tired of fighting.

Now we have a bigger cost and still struggling to get it reimbursed.

I’m super frustrated and honestly a little stressed that we trumpet this benefit but it’s taking so much to actually use it

Thanks in advance

What are the expenses for? They paid all of my egg freezing payments a couple years ago and have not had issues with the yearly storage fee getting paid either

The storage is paid after each “time”. I do yearly fee so each year they reimburse my payment from the year prior.. if that makes sense.

Is your wife covered under your health insurance? That’s required for all the pathways to be paid I believe

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?

Do we know if there is a sponsoring partner that oversees this benefit/ program that I could have more of a heart to heart conversation with?

However, anything related to IVF or medical procedures has to go through insurance (also limited to $50k lifetime benefit). Continued…
