How much is the filing fee for IVF?
IVF technology is a medical technology that helps couples who cannot conceive naturally to realize their reproductive dreams through in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Before IVF, couples need to go through a series of physical examinations and filing procedures. This article will take the cost as the starting point, and elaborate on the IVF filing costs from the perspectives of hospital selection, inspection items, inspection costs and public and private hospitals.
Hospital selection
Choosing a suitable hospital is the first step to file IVF. Generally speaking, large general hospitals or professional reproductive hospitals have more complete equipment and professional doctor teams, so the filing costs are relatively high. For example, Peking Union Medical College Hospital is a well-known large hospital, and its IVF filing costs are about 500-1000 yuan.
Smaller private hospitals may have relatively low filing costs, but it should be noted that their equipment and technical level may not be as good as that of large hospitals. The filing cost of private hospitals with lower costs is about 200-500 yuan. When choosing a hospital, the couple should consider the reputation, strength and actual situation of the hospital comprehensively, and weigh the advantages and disadvantages to make a decision.
Inspection items
During the filing process of IVF, couples need to carry out a series of physical examinations to ensure that their physical conditions are suitable for IVF. These examination items include gynecology examination, andrology examination, endocrine examination, etc. Different hospitals may have slightly different examination items, but they are roughly the same.
Gynecological examination includes gynecological disease screening, ultrasound examination, hysteroscopy, etc., and the cost range is about 200-1000 yuan. The andrology examination mainly includes semen examination and reproductive system examination, and the cost is about 200-800 yuan. Endocrine examination is mainly the detection of female hormone level, and the cost is about 300-600 yuan.
In addition, couples also need to carry out chromosome tests, hepatitis B virus tests, HIV tests and other special items, with costs ranging from 200 to 500 yuan. The cost of inspection items may vary from region to region and hospital to hospital.
Inspection expenses
In addition to the specific inspection items, the couple also need to pay some additional filing fees. These expenses include registration fees, outpatient fees and related drug costs. The charging standards of different hospitals will be different.
Generally speaking, public hospitals charge lower fees than private hospitals. In Peking Union Medical College Hospital, the registration fee is 3-10 yuan, and the outpatient fee is 5-20 yuan. The drug cost is determined according to the specific drugs. However, the outpatient fees of some private hospitals may be 20 to 50 yuan, which may be higher if the drug costs are added.
Public and private hospitals
IVF archiving can be conducted in both public hospitals and private hospitals. Public hospitals generally charge relatively low fees, but because of the large demand, the problem of queuing needs to be considered. Private hospitals generally charge higher fees, but can provide more personalized services and more comfortable medical environment.
In general, the cost of IVF filing varies among different hospitals. Large general hospitals and professional reproductive hospitals have relatively high filing costs, while private hospitals may have lower costs. In addition to hospital selection, examination items, examination fees and public and private hospitals will all affect the amount of IVF filing fees.
Therefore, when choosing IVF for filing, couples should consider their own economic situation and hospital strength, and choose a suitable hospital for filing. Through reasonable cost control, couples can successfully carry out IVF and look forward to the birth of a healthy and beautiful baby.
