Considering that an IVF can cost about oh 12K (speaking from experience) having to pay only $2,500 out of pocket is WONDERFUL. AMAZING. EXCELLENT.
Is that a lifetime total or per procedure?

I wish I had the letter in front of me. I believe its for one set procedure. I'll double check when I get home. I really wasn't to sure how to react. I was almost in tears 'cause its still alot of money. They want it in full next visit certified check. I can't imagine not having ins that would cover this. Its so sad. Pluse I'm getting laid off soon I hope my ins will hang around.

That's great coverage!
I don't know about your 2nd question because my RE doesn't do the trial transfers.
Here's wishing you lots of luck!!

The trial of tansfer is painless - its basically a catheder inserted to the uterus to see where they will transfer to
Two minuts - or less - no worse than an IUI, if you've had them, otherwise, no worse than a sono
Good luck - what RE are you using?

WOW....$2500 is AMAZING!
My Clinic charges over $19,000 for the entire IVF cycle.
I got the NYS grant for patients in need and still paid over $7000 for this cycle.
Like somone mentioned, the physical isisnt really a physical...just a regular appointment and the trial transfer takes maybe 1 minute tops, you feel nothing.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
