Stupid question but isn’t IVF (at least one cycle) covered by the govt? I know I’ve seen so many post about it in Reddit circles with crazy waitlists but I was under the assumption it was covered if you qualified and waited.

like

I waited 6 months on that waitlist in Kitchener ON. I think some cities have shorter wait lists depending on the number of people who apply. So the less the population I guess the shorter the wait time. Toronto must be longer.

Well in Canada , govt funded IVF (only for one cycle) has a waitlist (18 months approx or less depending) where as non funded ivf (private) has no waitlist but treatment is comparatively expensive.

Greenshield only covers drugs used for the treatment (15k lifetime) but not for the treatment itself . This what the greenshield agent said. Had confirmed twice

And can you get private insurance to help cover something like this in Canada? Sorry I don't know how it works but I'm just curious how it works

GreenShield is our benefits provider, so no Accenture Canada will not shell out money for any additional coverage.

So that means no benefit related to ivf
