Question by Boo!: How much is your fertility drugs/ fertility consultant fees from Kaiser Permanante?
I have insurance threw Kaiser and have the 2,700 deductable plan. I pay 109 every month for health and dental. I was wondering if anyone else has the same plan and is currently going through fertility treatment and how much they are paying. I will be seeking fertility treatment soon and would like to know the cost ahead of time. Thanks!
Mine is an individual plan and will have to pay out of pocket as well.

Wow you must have Kaiser through your work? I have Kaiser through an “individual” rather than “work” plan and they told me they don’t cover fertility treatments in their individual plans. =( So I pay out of pocket. Meds for one month = $ 500, ultrasounds $ 150, insemination $ 300. Your cost will obviously be less since they are covering you. Invitro is in the thousands, but we haven’t gotten there yet.

EDIT — I forgot to say that because they did not cover infertility treatments in the “individual plan,” they refused to let me use their infertility services even though I was willing to pay them out of pocket — some liability issue or something. Their infertility services are only for people that are covered by the infertility insurance. So I had to go out of the Kaiser system for my infertility treatments. I live in Los Angeles if that makes any difference — maybe Kaiser is different where you live.
