Recently, my husband lost his job working for a local factory. It was such a shock to us, as we relied on this job for insurance. Immediately, he sent out resumes everywhere, but no one seemed to want to give him a job.
Under pressure from his nagging wife (me) he went to a temp agency to get short term work. What he found was a long-term opportunity whose insurance with Blue Cross/ Blue Shield insurance covers infertility! It is an amazing miracle.
As many of you know, infertility is typically not covered by insurance policies. A few states mandate infertility insurance coverage for locally owned companies employing a minimum number of employees, but finding a job in Indiana with insurance that covers infertility is amazing. He works for Patterson Dental. Of course, our infertility journey is far from guaranteed a positive outcome, but at least we can afford more cycles.
Insurance is a popular subject for infertile couples. The better insurance coverage is, the better likelihood an infertile couple will get the best form of treatment for their case. After all, if insurance covers only certain infertility treatments, couples are likely to spend a lot more money on what an insurance company will pay for than what they directly need, costing the insurance company in the process.
