These are my last lot of costs wheich were through MIVF (Freemasons) about 12 months ago. The prices Jo posted above are probably more current.

Administration fee $200
IVF cycle (completed) $3119*
ICSI $290
Embryo biopsy $1375
Anaesthetic $200
Hospital bed $650*
TOTAL $5834
Medicare rebates $1959 + $110 = $2069
(IVF cycle and anaesthetic)
TOTAL OUT OF POCKET $3765
(* these are the only costs I got a medicare rebate on)

On top of this, I have to take off various private health insurance rebates (eg I only pay $200 for the hospital bed, so a rebate of $450), but I have to include anything extra not covered on this such as extra blood work or scans not covered int he "global fee", any extra medication (eg. $90 for Syneral, $350 for Orgalutron).

So I would say that all up, my average costs were about $2000 - $2500 if I didn't include the embryo biopsying ( which is definately not done all the time and not a consideration for many couples on IVF).
