What are the restrictions on IVF reimbursement insurance?

IVF refers to a method of cultivating fertilized eggs to a certain stage of development in the laboratory through assisted reproductive technology, and then transferring the embryos back to the female uterus to achieve pregnancy and delivery. For some infertile couples, IVF technology is a hope. However, the cost of IVF is high, and many families will choose to buy IVF insurance to share some of the economic pressure.

Fundamentals of IVF insurance

IVF insurance is a special kind of medical insurance, which aims to provide IVF related expenses reimbursement for infertile families. After purchasing IVF insurance, the insured can apply for reimbursement of medical expenses incurred during IVF treatment, such as in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer, and assisted reproductive drugs.

However, there are some restrictions on IVF reimbursement insurance. The following are some common restrictions:

Age limit

IVF insurance usually has a certain age limit for the purchaser. Generally speaking, the age range for purchasing IVF insurance is between 20 and 45 years old.

Which insurance companies have strict restrictions on age and which companies will relax the age limit need to be determined according to specific insurance contracts.

Infertility certificate

IVF insurance generally requires the purchaser to provide a certificate of infertility. Infertility certificates are usually issued by doctors and certified by relevant departments. This is to avoid the abuse of the insurance contract and ensure that the insurance money is really used for infertility treatment. The infertility certificate usually needs to include relevant physical examination reports, test results, treatment records, etc.

Restrictions on hospitals

Some insurance companies will sign cooperation agreements with designated hospitals and experts to ensure that buyers can enjoy insurance reimbursement when receiving IVF treatment in designated hospitals. When purchasing IVF insurance, you need to know the specific insurance terms and contracts, and specify the list of hospitals and experts that the insurance company cooperates with.
