The Crozer Reproductive Endocrinology and Fertility Center in Upland, part of the Crozer-Keystone Health System, has introduced “multi-cycle” package that charges $12,500 for two attempts and $15,000 for three attempts. The cost of a single attempt is $9,000 to $12,000 at most reproductive centers. Several tries are often needed to achieve pregnancy and insurance typically won’t pay for the procedure.
The strategy at the Crozer center is to “make the process of achieving a healthy pregnancy more affordable and, possibly, more successful for couples experiencing fertility problems.”

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
