[quote=Anonymous]We have MDIPA and went straight to IVF. At the time of IVF#1 (2006) we had a crummy enough sperm that I couldn't imagine MDIPA making us do IUIs (and they didn't). Now they just approved another IVF and our SA looks fantastic and is well within IUI territory but we elected to go straight to IVF given our history of success (and the fact that an IUI with MDIPA will run us about $1500 and IVF is only $2000 more but much more likely to work). My point being that now even with "unexplained" fertility and great testing results on both partners MDIPA is paying for IVF outright. My impression from talking to my financial counselor at Shady Grove is that MDIPA will generally take the doctor's word for it if the physician recommends proceeding righth to IVF . MDIPA has one physician working for them who approves all infertility related referrals and I imagine she knows and trusts the clinical judgement of most of of REs that work in this geographic area.
