Hi everyone!
I am getting excited for our first round of iui!
My insurance offers each of us a lifetime max of $2,000 towards infertility but it only pays for diagnostic testing no treatments so it's kind of a joke. I called there the other day to see if I could find out what exactly is covered and of course they said they would look into it and never called me back. I did have $500 in flex benefits which I can use as long as we have a diagnosis of infertility. We have to pay $400 the day of the iui so that will use up most of my flex benefits plus we just got an $80 bill from DH's male infertility specialist. I already owe my previous clinic $2,500. It's scary thinking about how much more expensive this might get and we're only at the beginning.
If it doesn't work this month I think we will wait until August for the second iui so we can save up some money and pay off some of these bills!
BUT...hopefully there won't be a second time!!!
Also of course my iui will likely fall on the weekend I am scheduled to work. My co-worker has already agreed to come in to cover me until I can get to work. So much planning!!
That's ok because in the end it will all be worth it!
Good luck everyone!
