There is a FB group for progyny jobs. I think one all progyny jobs and one Amazon based.

My husband works for a big hospital system and they offered progyny. He is underpaid and wanted to leave for years but he stayed and is staying though the birth because of the cost savings.

They paid for everything in full- zero copays thanks to progyny and our fertility center being affiliated with his hospital. Meds in full, his azoospermia surgeries, my retrievals, freezing and pgt testing. And all of my ob care and delivery will be zero co pay. Using a job for benefits is absolutely a good idea and makes sense.

As far as the childcare argument. We are able to work out schedules out to not need childcare because that is a priority for us after all the work and waiting it took to get here. Not everyone needs/wants an expensive nanny or daycare. If you do that's fine! But the argument above is dumb.

Also I've seen so many people in those FB groups keep their main job and work part time at target or tractor supply for fertility benefits. Or quit Amazon after the first day and pay out cobra for a year - this prob isn't a good idea unless you have a straight forward case or are ready to jump into freezing pgt ems and transfers.

You can also exhaust progyny benefits at one company and switch to another and use those

The cost of IVF is a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of things.

Our nanny is $50k a year * 6 years = $300k after tax income.

IVF was maybe $20k.

I hope you understand that not everyone gets pregnant from one cycle.

What a ridiculous post. Many people don't get pregnant single round ivf with no pgt testing.

Peraton has 3 smart cycles. They've already paid about 75k for me this year and haven't even done a transfer ( and we paid cash for a couple iui to save this benefit)

It’s not ridiculous at all. If you’re going to choose your employer based on IVF coverage are you aware of how high childcare costs are?

How much is shady grove shared risk?

Fannie Mae does. 3 rounds of IUI, 4 rounds of IVF, 1 baby now in college.

EY gives a $50k lifetime benefit that can be used for IVF, adoption, elective egg freezing, surrogacy, etc.

You got lucky with IVF and your post is clueless. Daycare will be a lot cheaper than a nanny.

I easily spent 70K on IVF and that was with good insurance.

Try Deloitte.

Will be required of DC employers in 2025.

Fed employees have fertility benefits this year. I totally missed the boat.

Amazon

State of Maryland has great benefits. University of Maryland in College Park would be a great place to look.

What are some companies that offer fertility treatment benefits such as Progyny Insurance in the DC area?
