The path to parenthood can be filled with a whirlwind of emotions—excitement, anticipation, and a touch of uncertainty. In this emotional landscape, thinking about the costs of IVF can often feel daunting. For some, these worries can cause delays or even make future parents consider giving up on their IVF journey altogether.
When thinking about having a baby, timing is critical. You need a partner who provides not just quality medical services, but also accessible and convenient solutions to the financial concerns many Australian families face.
That’s why at First Step Fertility, we’re committed to bulk-billing your treatment wherever we can under Medicare. Unlike other clinics, we also don’t charge for a number of common fees like registration fees, additional embryo freezing, or blastocyst culture. All of this can potentially save you thousands—and that’s on top of the savings from bulk-billing.
For any remaining out of pocket costs, our interest-free IVF payment plans can be a tool to help you focus on what truly matters—your journey towards welcoming a new life into your family.
Why Take Advantage of First Step Fertility’s IVF Payment Plans?
Our plans allow you to comfortably spread out of pocket costs like fees for your egg collection procedure, day hospital fees, or Frozen Embryo Transfer over 12 months—completely interest-free. This approach makes dealing with the financial aspects of IVF more manageable.
