The initial testing yes. But once that's done they give you a referral to Shady Grove Fertility. I'm pretty sure Kaiser only covers IUIs with them though.

With Kaiser, IUIs are covered at 50% but all the initial lab work and testing like the HSG has to be through them. They also only refer to Shady Grove Fertility.

I believe you qualify for CareFirst if you work or live in one of the areas that are eligible. Check the plan brochure on OPM’s web site. All of DC might be eligible, I am not sure. Unfortunately, I had to rule it out because I live and work outside of their area.

I’m at Columbia, I’ll check that. Thank you!

I don't know about DC, but in NOVA only Kaiser and CareFirst cover IUI at 50%. CareFirst is only available in certain zip codes though.

I’m moving over to a federal government job mid year so switching my coverage. I expect to do at part a few cycles if IUIs this year, possibly with a medicated ovulation (Letrozole). I’ve already done most of the pre conception diagnostic tests. Could anyone recommend the best insurance coverage? I love in DC.
