After all the time you’ve spent trying to get pregnant, fitting appointments into your busy schedule, and changing your entire lifestyle only to find out that you and your partner are not able to conceive, the last thing you need is to have finances on your list of things to worry about. But in all the chaos of trying so hard to build your family, there are some silver linings.
The most important thing to know is with all this trial and error, you haven’t stopped trying. You’re already proving to be an astonishing parent just by all the work you’ve gone through to make a baby happen. That alone is a feat that you should be proud of yourselves for! The second thing to remember is that if you’re worried about the cost of infertility treatment, there are several options for you to consider so you can use more money to spoil that precious little baby when they arrive!
Get Your Finance Questions Answered
Your first step should be to find reliable and experienced professionals to discuss your fertility options. It’s no doubt that you have dozens of unanswered questions, so it might be a good idea to attend a seminar to get some clarity. Red Rock Fertility Center offers free seminar classes so you can learn more about infertility and how to tackle it.
Patients who attend the seminar will receive $100 off their initial consultation and may be eligible for additional discounts on Ultra IVF packages. This is a great start to saving money and taking progressive steps towards your ultimate goal!

Meet With a Financial Counselor
After scheduling your initial consultation and coming up with the perfect fertility treatment plan, our specialized financial counselor at Red Rock Fertility Center can help assess your finances and come up with a financing plan that is within your budget. While Red Rock Fertility does not offer in-house financing, a payment plan for your fertility treatment is available. Alphaeon Patient Financing, Prosper Healthcare Lending, and United Medical Credit are all available options to discuss with an associate and your partner to determine what would work best for your family.
Tax Breaks
You may be surprised to find out that the IRS can play a small part in saving some money, too! It’s a good idea to save all your receipts from doctor appointments, medications, and even pregnancy tests, then speak with your accountant about what you can claim as tax deductible. A little research and asking the right questions could potentially save you a big bundle of cash on your little bundle of joy.
Grants
Another surprising financial assistance option is to start applying for are grants! You read that right; there are grants out there that help families with infertility services. The Baby Quest Foundation is a charitable organization that covers partial or full costs of fertility care for some patients. Baby Quest Foundation strives to offer grants twice a year to qualifying applicants.
Try not to get discouraged if you’re not accepted for a grant right away. You’ve already proved your persistence, so keep trying! Keep in mind that there are several other resources such as:
- The Tinina Q. Cade Foundation
- The Pay It Forward Foundation
- Setting up a GoFundMe account
During a financially stressful time, it’s uplifting to know that there are people out there who want to help.
Your strength and persistence through this journey is admirable to say the least. Even though things may not have worked out as you had originally envisioned, remember that there will always be options and Red Rock Fertility Center will be there to help you decide what option will work best for you, both emotionally and financially. The moment you have your baby warm in your arms, all the strife it took to get to there will vanish. So, as you map out your financial journey towards your growing family, keep moving forward and let Red Rock Fertility Center help you along the way.
