At Palm Beach Fertility Center, we understand the importance of having cost deferment options available when undergoing fertility treatments. Our insurance specialists and patient advocates will uncover every benefit, program and medication discount that helps you better afford the cost of fertility treatments. We also pledge to match any package and guarantee plans offered by other fertility centers.
Palm Beach Fertility Center assists patients in identifying cost-savings and affordability measures. For instance:
Fertility financing: Many of our patients appreciate having the freedom to pursue treatment without the pressure to cover the cost all at once. We have partnered with Springstone Patient Financing, and also offer cost containment packages so that you know the cost of fertility treatments up front.
Drug discount programs: Palm Beach Fertility Center advocates for our patients, and seeks out specialty pharmacies that offer discounted fertility medications. Some pharmaceutical companies offer drug discount programs to help with the cost of fertility treatments. For example, EMD Serono offers fertility medication discount programs for self-pay patients. Find out more on the Fertility Lifelines website that also includes facts about fertility treatment, support and statistics. Ferring Pharmaceuticals also offers the Green Light and Heart Beat Programs.
Fertility insurance benefits: Some states require insurance benefits for infertility, but unfortunately Florida is not one of them. This even though, according to statistics provided by the National Infertility Association, only California, New York and Texas have more residents affected by infertility! Dr. Mark Denker actively advocates for insurance reform in Florida, but in the meantime, many insurance plans will cover all or part of the cost of diagnostic services and testing.
Grants and scholarships: You may have the opportunity to secure grants and scholarships for affording the cost of infertility treatments. Not-for-profit organizations, including BabyQuest Foundation and Pay it Forward Fertility, offer need-based grants to all individuals and couples, as well as special programs for active and retired military.

As you make a plan to pursue family building options, it’s important that you have honest conversations with your partner about the cost of fertility treatments. You may wish to make a financial plan and decide together when to say when.
