Pittsburgh Fertility does not accept insurance. To provide the highest level of personalized care, we operate as a self-pay clinic and do not bill insurance directly. We encourage our patients to consider a pay-and-submit arrangement with their insurance company. Using this method, the patient is responsible for paying the full cost of medical services at the time of the appointment. After payment is made, you can submit the receipt and required documentation to your insurance provider for reimbursement. The insurance company then reviews the claim and reimburses you for the portion of the expense that is covered under the policy.
We are also partnered with several financing companies to aid in the cost of fertility treatment, testing, and medications. Please see our Financial Resources Tab.
(The IRS has clarified that many IVF costs can qualify as deductible medical expenses when they’re incurred on the patient’s own body and exceed 7.5% of AGI. That can include things like *Fertility screenings and diagnostic tests, *Medications and hormone treatments, *Egg and sperm retrieval procedures, *Embryo creation and related lab work. This is real money back in your pocket if you’re itemizing. It won’t erase the cost, but it can soften the blow at a time when every dollar counts.)
At this time, we are not in network with Progyny, Carrot, Maven or Win Benefits.
