PREG IVF REFUND PLAN

Helping Your Dreams of Having a Family Become Reality
 
Piedmont Reproductive Endocrinology Group (PREG) is excited to announce that we are now offering our patients the PREG IVF Refund Plan effective September 1, 2006. We understand that most couples are concerned about the costs of infertility treatments without the guarantee of a successful outcome especially when there is no insurance coverage. That’s why we’ve developed the PREG IVF Refund Program specifically designed with our patients in mind.
 
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is usually very successful in treating infertility, but like many other treatments, more than one IVF (and possible frozen embryo transfer) cycle may be required to achieve pregnancy. Our IVF Refund Plan offers patients every opportunity to succeed with IVF while removing the financial burden of multiple treatments. You can now take comfort in knowing that for one flat fee you will have up to three (3) IVF cycles and three (3) Frozen Embryo Transfers (FET) cycles. This will help remove the financial anxiety and allow you to receive the best medical treatment needed to help you have a baby.
 
You may request more information on the PREG IVF Refund Plan by calling 864-232-PREG and speaking with our financial advisors.

How does the Program Work?

 
Once you’re seen for consultation in the office, a variety of screening tests are performed to access whether you are a candidate for the PREG IVF Refund Plan. If you qualify you will be eligible for up to three cycles of IVF and three FETs at PREG for a fixed rate. If your treatment is unsuccessful after your six (6) treatment cycles, you will receive a 90% Refund of your original payment fee leaving your financial resources intact to pursue other possible options for achieving a family.
