Pioneering Fertility Treatment Provider Reduces the Financial Barrier to IVF and Egg Freezing
DENVER — March 8, 2021 — CCRM Fertility, a global pioneer in fertility science, research and treatment, today announced an alliance with fintech company Future Family, the leading provider of affordable fertility plans for in vitro fertilization (IVF) and egg freezing patients. This partnership will allow CCRM Fertility patients to access care starting at just $350 a month, with the goal of making it easier for more patients to move forward with cutting-edge fertility treatments.
“Careful financial planning is an integral part of the journey for many patients who are seeking fertility treatments, and it is especially important amidst the current economic climate,” comments CCRM Fertility President and CEO Jon Pardew. “Through our partnership with Future Family, even more families will have access to high-quality fertility care through affordable monthly plans specifically tailored for fertility patients.”
Although IVF is becoming more mainstream in the U.S., many people aren’t able to move forward with treatment due to the cost, which averages $23,000 per cycle and is often not covered by insurance. CCRM Fertility’s partnership with Future Family will allow more individuals and couples seeking fertility treatment access to innovative programs such as its One Day Work-Up℠. This one-of-a-kind program allows CCRM Fertility patients to complete most fertility testing in a single day, minimizing office visits and expediting treatment in one efficient appointment. A typical fertility work-up consists of more than half a dozen appointments which take place over the course of several weeks or months.
Future Family was founded by Claire Tomkins, who went through IVF herself, and saw that the biggest barriers to people moving forward with IVF were cost and complexity. Future Family offers low-interest rate monthly plans to cover the cost of fertility treatment and a built-in fertility coaching service to address the complexity of the patient journey. Every Future Family client gets access to their unique fertility coaching service, staffed by registered nurses with clinic fertility experience, for support and guidance. This service includes video consults, text support, medication training, after hours care, and a number of other features designed with the fertility patient in mind.
Future Family’s patient support services also features financing bill pay management, which includes coordination of payments with CCRM Fertility, the pharmacy, and other service providers, allowing patients to focus more on their treatments and less on finances.
“CCRM Fertility has a stellar reputation in the industry. They’re known for their leadership and groundbreaking fertility treatments that make parenthood a reality for so many couples,” said Tomkins. “We are excited to partner to make this truly world-class care available to more aspiring parents across the nation.”
Future Family offerings include the Friends and Family plan, a monthly plan that allows a family member or friend to sponsor the patient undergoing fertility treatment by making the monthly payments on their behalf.
Financing through Future Family is available to CCRM Fertility patients in Atlanta, Boston, Colorado, Dallas Fort-Worth, Houston, Minneapolis, New York, Northern Virginia and San Francisco.
