IVF Meds...OOP cost

How much were your IVF meds? Please state if you had insurance coverage or not. thanks. For one cycle, i paid OOP $400, and i have what is considered "good" coverage for meds?!?! Thanks

Re: IVF Meds...OOP cost

Hmmm, I didn't have med coverage and paid over 5k for meds easy...and that doesn't include IVIg which was another 4k plus-

So, I would be THRILLED at having "good" coverage!

Re: IVF Meds...OOP cost

That sounds about right. All the co-pays add up. Remember each Rx will have a co-pay, so each order for the different sized needles is a seperate co-pay. GL!!

Re: IVF Meds...OOP cost

I have IVF coverage but my meds are covered under my prescription plan and do not count towards my lifetime cap of $30,000.

The total cost for meds and needles was $120 for this IVF cycle. It was the same for my last cycle as well. I was told by my doctor and the pharmacist that I had excellent insurance. In fact, I lost my job and am doing COBRA instead of joining my hubby's insurance just to get IVF coverage.

If I had to pay OOP for my meds it would be $9K.

With my co-pay the first cycle cost $260.

I think $260 is way better than $9K.

Re: IVF Meds...OOP cost

My medication insurance is pretty good.

I had over $5K in charges and paid about $300-400 in OOP copays.
