The emotional tax of a fertility journey can be heightened by the fees associated with it. Our mission is to cut through that with honesty and support from the beginning. While we can’t predict each patient’s exact costs, we can offer complete clarity on treatment pricing as well as options for navigating finances throughout your journey.
Patients can access services that are insured by their province. Before any of these services are covered, you will need a referral from another physician (we recommend a family doctor). Please speak with our Financial Concierge who can help explain further what’s covered.
Within our guide, we offer a high-level look at treatment and the associated costs. Please feel reach to reach out with questions for further clarity.

With a referral from your doctor, provincial healthcare can cover many of your costs, including consultations, follow-ups, and some diagnostic tests. However, more advanced fertility treatments may not be included in this coverage. For specific details, it's best to consult your healthcare plan's benefits administrator. The cost of fertility treatments can vary widely depending on factors like testing, procedures, and medications, as well as differences between practices.
In Canada, the availability of fertility treatment coverage differs by province. Some provinces offer coverage for diagnostic fertility tests and specific treatments like intrauterine insemination [IUI]. However, procedures such as in vitro fertilization [IVF] typically require private insurance or out-of-pocket payments. To understand which fertility treatments are covered in your region, check with your provincial health plan or private insurance provider, as coverage policies can vary.
In Canada, qualifying medical expenses under the Income Tax Act may include some fertility diagnostic procedures and services, such as lab work and radiological procedures. Other expenses likely not covered include IVF, monitoring (i.e., ongoing bloodwork and ultrasounds during IVF), anesthesia, and more. Please consult with your personal accountant to determine deduction eligibility for your fertility treatment costs.
