[quote=Anonymous]I have Kaiser.  With Kaiser, you need to do initial diagnostic testing through Kaiser, then they refer you to Shady Grove Fertility for treatment.  Our plan covered 50%.  Below are 2018 costs for diagnostic tests and IUIs.  I put in total costs and then our costs in parentheses.  It is a little confusing because the providers charge a certain amount, but then the insurance has a lower negotiated rate and that's what actual costs below are based on.

2018 diagnostic and IUI costs through Kaiser and Shady Grove Fertility
Initial consult with OB for infertility through Kaiser: $80 (our costs: $40)
Day 3 bloodwork through Kaiser: $450 (our costs: $225)
Semen analysis through Kaiser: $40 (our costs: $15)
HSG through Kaiser: $200 (our costs: $100) – this seemed very low to me, I think Shady Grove’s price list had something like $1,600 for the HSG, but it is what they charged
Consult with Shady Grove Fertility RE: $100 (our costs: $50)
Genetic disease carrier testing: $350 (for each partner)
Clomid IUI cycle through Shady Grove Fertility including meds, initial monitoring appointment and two follow-up monitoring appointments: $1,200 (our costs: $600, but note that I believe this does not include the costs of hormonal support for some reason these were fully covered)
Hybrid Femara and Gonal-F IUI cycle through Shady Grove Fertility including meds, initial monitoring appointment and one follow up monitoring appointment: $1,500 (our costs: $750, we lucked out on this cycle because I was ready to trigger after first follow up monitoring appointment so we didn’t need another monitoring appointment, also this time I think the estrace was fully covered by insurance but the prometrium was not).
