What are the fees and expenses involved?

When it comes to the financial investment involved in becoming a parent through surrogacy, our goal is to be as transparent as possible. These fees do fluctuate somewhat and are offered as general guidance only.

 

ESTIMATED FEES and EXPENSES

Factors that affect the total cost are:

• The number of cycles needed for the gestational surrogate to become pregnant (with IVF, this can significantly affect the total amount greatly).

• The amount of medical costs not covered by insurance. We review the gestational surrogate’s current policy, if she has one, to check for exclusions. If she does not have insurance or her insurance is not adequate, then we provide guidance for obtaining insurance for her.  We work with insurance experts for all insurance reviews.

• The “compensation” agreed on for the gestational surrogate. 

 

Examples of other typical expenses covered by the intended parents:

• $500 per embryo transfer procedure

• $500 - $750 for invasive surgical procedures

• $350 for procedures such as an hysterosalpingogram (HSG)

• $1500 - $2,500 for a cesarean section (C-section)

• $2500 - $3500 for a multiple birth for each additional child

• $350 for a life insurance policy

• $1200 - $1800 for a gestational surrogate’s attorney

• Any applicable net lost wages

• Reasonable child care and housekeeping if placed on bed rest

• $500-$750 for maternity clothes

• Cost for a psychological evaluation

• Uncovered medicals, co-pays, or health insurance premiums

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note that this is an estimate of expenses only. You will have a better idea of total

expenses when we review the process in detail and when you are matched

with a particular gestational surrogate.
