2、 Cost breakdown: Where is the money spent?

1. Preliminary medical evaluation 🩺

  • International video consultation: $250-400 (30-45 minutes, with direct conversation with Dr. James P. Lin from the IFC IVF Center or Susan Nasab, MD from the RFC Reproductive Center in the United States).
  • Domestic pre examination: six hormones AMH、 Ultrasound and eight infectious diseases, approximately $200-300, can be offset against repeat projects in the United States.
  • Follow up examination after going to the United States: If the pre examination is>90 days, the clinic requires a redo, with a price difference of about 300-500 US dollars.

Money saving tips:Perform "internationally recognized" format laboratory tests (English report+official seal) in top tier hospitals in China, and bring them to the United States within 90 days to save one blood draw and ultrasound package.

2. Promotion and monitoring 💉

The medication plan in the United States emphasizes "individualization", where the dosage directly determines the thickness of the bill.

Gonal-f 300IU 12-15 pieces 280 3,360 – 4,200

Total cost of medication 5,920 – 7,850

Monitoring fee: Approximately $350 per ultrasound and blood draw, with an average of 5-6 sessions, totaling $1750-2100.

Money saving tips:Some pharmacies have launched "International Patient Discount Cards", which offer a 5% -8% rebate for early online registration; In addition, Costco pharmacies in the Los Angeles area often offer prices 10% -15% lower than hospital pharmacies and can be purchased with a prescription.

3. Egg retrieval+embryo culture 🧪

  • Laboratory ICSI: $1500-2000 (the price difference between conventional IVF and ICSI is about $600).
  • Embryo culture: $1200-1500 (cultured to D5/D6).
  • Time-lapse胚胎镜:800 – 1,200美元(可选,能连续拍照监测分裂)。

若精子参数临界,需加PICSI或IMSI,再加300 – 500美元。

四、预算攻略:如何把37万砍到25万?

1. 选对城市=省掉3万 🗺️

洛杉矶、拉斯维加斯、奥斯汀整体消费比旧金山、纽约低20% – 25%。以住宿为例,托伦斯(INCINTA所在地)30晚民宿均价110美元/晚,而曼哈顿同档次要220美元/晚。

2. 药物“拼单” 💊

美国药房允许“拆盒销售”,同一批号药物可多人共享。若同期有多名国人在同一诊所进周,可委托护士统一订药,平均每人省400 – 600美元。

3. 利用“分段付款” 💳

INCINTA与RFC均支持“4期免息”:签约付30%,取卵当天付30%,移植当天付30%,剩余10%在验孕成功后再付。把换汇时间拉长,可抓两次汇率低点,潜在省1% – 2%。

4. 共享风险计划 🔄

Shady Grove、CCRM等提供“6次移植套餐”,若未获活产可退70% – 80%费用。前提:女方AMH>1.2、FSH

5. 旅行“淡季+积分” ✈️

3 – 4月、9 – 10月为赴美淡季,广州 – 洛杉矶往返经济舱最低650美元(含税)。叠加信用卡里程兑换民宿,住宿成本再降30%。

6. 合理携带药品 🎒

美国海关允许个人携带90天用药量。促排后期若回国继续监测,可把剩余黄体酮凝胶、肝素带回国,节省后续移植药费约500美元。

五、容易被忽略的“隐藏账”

  1. 宫腔镜:若B超提示内膜回声不均,医生会临时加做宫腔镜,1,800 – 2,500美元。
  2. 输卵管造影:虽不做为试管必需,但部分保险要求提供,800 – 1,000美元。
  3. 麻醉师单独账单:美国手术室麻醉费与医生费分开结算,取卵当天可能再收500 – 700美元。
  4. 胚胎运输:若想转回国内继续移植,国际液氮快递2,800 – 3,200美元,不含关税。
  5. 胎儿心跳B超:移植成功后,部分诊所把第6、8周B超算为“产科”而非“生殖科”,保险拒报,自付每次250 – 350美元。

六、支付通道与外汇技巧

  • 对公电汇:医院多使用Chase或BOA账户,单笔手续费30 – 50美元,需1 – 2个工作日到账。
  • 信用卡:Visa/MasterCard通道可一次性刷5万美元,但需提前向银行申请“大额境外交易”授权,否则会被风控。
  • third party平台:Wise、Remitly实时汇率优于银行1% – 1.5%,单笔上限5万美元,适合分阶段付款。
  • 加密货币:个别诊所接受USDC稳定币,实时到账,可省中间行费用,但需自行承担合规申报。

7、 Insurance: How much can be insured?

There are three types of IVF insurance in the United States:

  1. 雇主团体险:Amazon、Google、Meta等为员工提供“终身5万美元ART额度”,但需在职且社保连续。
  2. 个人短期险:如Progeny、WinFertility,需提前90天投保,覆盖40% – 70%药费与手术费,但保费高达每月600 – 800美元。
  3. 国际患者专属险:仅覆盖并发症(卵巢过度刺激、取卵后出血等),不含常规治疗,保费400 – 600美元,建议至少购买一份以防万一。
