[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Double check with your insurance whether the six IUIs to be be covered for IVF have to be medicated or can be unmedicated. Had I known I needed to have six failed [b]medicated[/b] IUIs before they would cover IVF, I wouldn't have wasted time and money on more than three unmedicated IUIs.

I am vehemently anti-multiples so medicated IUIs were never going to be an option for me. I'll be doing a single embryo transfer unless my eggs turn out to be so bad that my RE advises transferring more.[/quote]

Is this in MD or anywhere?[/quote]

I think it's insurance-specific, but I believe this can be a requirement under MD law.  With MDIPA, though, my RE was able to waive the IUI requirement based on the MFI dx.  The MFI dx was severe enough that RE recommended going straight to IVF with ICSI.  We actually did do 2 natural IUIs since it was the fall, and I was planning to switch to Federal MDIPA for coverage during open season before starting IVF the next year.  Unsurprisingly, neither of the IUIs were successful.  Unfortunately, I know, Fed MDIPA is no longer an option for IVF coverage :([/quote]
