Do you need to pay again after the failure of the test tube baby dragon and chicken fetus?
The development of IVF technology provides a chance for many infertile couples to realize their hopes. However, the success rate of IVF is not 100%, and failure can not be avoided sometimes. It is worth discussing whether it is necessary to pay again after the failure of IVF twins. This article will elaborate on this from many aspects.
Contractual relationship between hospital and patient
In the process of IVF, a relevant contract is usually signed between the hospital and the patient, which clarifies the rights and responsibilities of both parties. In such contracts, it is often stipulated whether IVF is successful and the specific payment method. If the contract clearly stipulates that only the first attempt will be paid, the patient will not need to pay again even if the failure occurs. However, if there is no clear provision in the contract, both parties should settle it through consultation, preferably through legal procedures:
First, both parties can try to resolve the dispute through mediation. Mediation will be carried out by the relevant departments between the hospital and the patient in order to find a solution acceptable to both sides. If the dispute cannot be settled through mediation, both parties can consider taking legal approaches:
Secondly, patients can choose to file a lawsuit through the court and ask the hospital to bear the cost again. In this process, patients need to provide evidence to prove that the hospital has negligence or improper behavior in the IVF process, which led to the failure of IVF. If the court finds that the hospital is negligent, it is likely that the hospital will have to bear the cost again.
Coverage of medical insurance
Medical insurance also plays an important role in the cost of IVF. Different medical insurance policies may have different provisions on the payment of IVF. In some countries or regions, medical insurance can cover all or part of the costs of IVF. Elsewhere, however, medical insurance may not cover IVF costs, or only cover the cost of the first attempt.
Therefore, after the failure of IVF twins, the need for re payment may also be subject to the coverage of medical insurance. If the medical insurance provision only covers the first attempt, the patient may have to bear the cost of a new attempt. However, if the medical insurance can cover multiple attempts, the patient can pay the cost of re trying through the medical insurance.
Moral responsibility of hospitals
As a responsible hospital, we should have an objective and true assessment of the success rate of IVF and provide sufficient information to patients. The hospital should maintain transparency and communication during treatment, and inform patients about the possibility of IVF failure. In addition, if the hospital is negligent in the process of IVF, resulting in the failure of the twins, the hospital should bear some responsibility and pay again.
However, the moral responsibility of the hospital is not clearly defined at the legal level, so whether it needs to pay again depends on the negotiation and mediation results of both parties. In reality, some hospitals will also consider the impact of their reputation and public image and choose to negotiate with patients to maintain good medical reputation.
conclusion
Whether the test tube baby needs to pay again after the failure of the twins depends on the comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. First of all, the contract between the hospital and the patient has an important binding force for the payment of fees. Secondly, the coverage of medical insurance will also affect the payment of expenses. The moral responsibility of the hospital can also affect the result of the payment to a certain extent. Therefore, after the failure of the test tube baby, the patient and the hospital need to conduct reasonable negotiation and mediation to find a solution acceptable to both sides.
