In BC, your consultation with a fertility specialist, as well as most tests for infertility, are covered by the provincial health plan (MSP) with a referral from your family doctor or a walk-in clinic. Many of the fertility treatments that follow are not publicly funded (non-insured).
Everyone’s fertility journey will be different, which means there is no standard cost for fertility treatment. Scheduling a consultation and undergoing assessment are essential steps to uncover your fertility needs and the corresponding potential costs of your specific treatment plan.
Following assessment, our team will be able to more accurately provide costing estimates, including medication. Note that medication required during your treatment may be covered by your third-party insurer (for example, Green Shield Canada). You are encouraged to contact your insurer directly to determine your individual eligibility. It is important to note that fertility medications are typically covered as an exception by most insurers, and as such it is the decision of the employer to offer it as a benefit in their respective plan for their employees.
