Insurance and coverage

Maryland law

Maryland requires many insurers to cover IVF (law effective 1985) -- 3 IVF per live birth; $100,000 lifetime max.

Maryland law requires coverage of fertility preservation before treatment that can cause infertility, such as cancer treatment (effective 2019).

What insurers pay this clinic

These are rates insurers have agreed to pay the clinic. They are not your cost and are not part of the prices above.

  • CignaIVF case rate: $4,842Sum of rates for IVF services: $1,589 to $7,983

A negotiated rate is what the insurer has agreed to pay the clinic for a billed service, not the patient's cost; the patient's share depends on the plan's IVF benefit, deductible and coinsurance. A clinic in the insurer's network file with no IVF billing codes suggests the plan likely excludes IVF.
