INFERTILITY

The American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) lists the average price of an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle in the U.S. to be $12,400. (ASRM does not qualify if this includes medications.) The price of intrauterine insemination (IUI), one IVF cycle using fresh embryos, and the additional charges for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) (where offered) from a cross section of clinics throughout the U.S. are listed below.

Average cost of an IUI cycle: $865; Median Cost: $350
Average Cost of an IVF cycle using fresh embryos (not including medications): $8,158; Median Cost: $7,500
Average additional cost of ICSI procedure:$1,544; Median Cost: $1,500
Average additional cost of PGD procedure: $3,550; Median Cost: $3,200
(Note: Medications for IVF are $3,000 $5,000 per fresh cycle on average.)
Several interesting trends in clinic pricing have surfaced:

In areas with few infertility clinics, prices, on average, are higher. High cost of living does not equate to high treatment costs IUI prices ranged from $275 to $2,457—a huge differential.
Some prices quoted include medications, blood work and sonograms; others do not—hence the huge price differential. ICSI prices across the country are within $500 of each other—$1,000 to $1,500.
