We are trying to change plan. What you’ll think about Aetna EPO, heard it pays 100% for IVF? Currently on BCBS not much benefits if we would want to skip IUI and jump to IVF. Any suggestions here would be helpful. Thank you.

I’m on aetna epo and looked into egg freezing.

it covers most of the medications up to the pharmacy limit. I’ll be paying less than 1k for meds.

It did not cover the egg retrieval procedure (but you would qualify in case of medical need i.e. upcoming chemotherapy or similar conditions). Paying around 8k for one retrieval.

Thank you

Each insurance plan is different at each carrier, but IME, even if mom is older, insurance companies will want you to try IUI before IVF. Doctor can try to override.

Sad post, in need of some support **** my partner and i tried for 1 year to conceive naturally, only to have a miscarriage and start our IVF journey. 1 year into that - we had 5 healthy PGT-A and PGT-M tested embryos and were hopeful to implant. Implantation 1 just failed. We lost 20% of our chances that took 1 year to build. And tine just keeps ticking

Has anyone switched labs for better lab quality/embryologist experience? Wondering if there is a significant difference between labs. We got poor results at our current clinic and, happens that our clinic is rated lower on SART website. Wondering if the lab quality is the reason or if the clinic handles complicated cases that lead to lower outcomes. Overall, unsure if we should switch clinics or just try again at the current one. Thanks.
