The Cost involved with IVF

[Megan]

Hi Willow, I have had to pay $2434 for a standard IVF cycle so far. (I will out of pocket up to about another $1000 when I go in for egg pick up next week.) ICSI at my clinic is an extra $500 on top of the standard IVF fee. I'm not sure how much it varies from clinic to clinic though, but at least that gives you a rough idea.
Don't forget about the medicare safety net too. Once you have spent over $1500 you get I think it's 80% of all out of pocket medical costs back.
Hope that helps a bit!

ICSI is about $700 at my clinic (QFG) and don't forget that the medicare safety net is $1500 spent on out of hospital expenses. So Day theatre charges etc are not included in the addition.
