The advanced reproductive technologies in today’s fertility landscape have completely reshaped the pathway and timeline to parenthood for many. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists reports that more women and couples are choosing to have children later in life—often in their late 30s and 40s—for varying personal, professional and financial reasons. Additionally, same-sex couples and single parents are increasingly turning to options like egg donation and other assisted fertility treatments to start a family.
Given that fertility begins to slowly decline around age 30, timely access to treatments is essential for increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy, as fertility reduces over time and multiple rounds of treatment are often required for those trying to conceive. However, a recent PatientFi consumer survey reveals that nearly 81% of women report needing to save for at least a year to afford a single round of IVF, with 60% requiring up to two years to save. Moreover, nearly 90% of women said they could only afford up to $10,000 on fertility treatment, with 36% claiming they could only spend under $1,000. Many patients are unaware of the financing options available to them, often feeling the need to save for years before pursuing treatments and this presents a significant challenge.
In response, Fairfax EggBank and PatientFi have partnered to help more patients start families by breaking down the financial barriers that limit timely access to fertility treatments and services. This collaboration aims to expand access to donor egg bank services for aspiring parents through flexible, stress-free fertility financing, allowing more families to grow while conveniently paying on their terms.
Empowering Family-Building with Flexible Financing
As an industry leader with one of the largest repositories of premium frozen donor eggs in the U.S., Fairfax EggBank understands the monetary limitations that many intended parents face. Unlike other egg banks or egg donor agencies, they impose no hidden fees or unexpected donor egg costs. The cost of a standard cohort of frozen donor eggs can reach upwards of $20,000 or more—a significant expense that can be costly for many families. Recognizing this, Fairfax EggBank saw an opportunity to join forces with a trusted partner.
PatientFi transforms how patients finance their donor egg costs and other fertility treatments (including medications) not covered by insurance with simple monthly payment plans. Patients make one affordable, steady payment each month and all their treatment costs are covered under one easy plan. As a leader in elective healthcare financing, PatientFi offers higher approvals and for larger amounts, with funding up to $50,000.
Patients apply in seconds, get instantly approved, and receive immediate access to funds—ensuring minimal financial interruptions, so patients can start treatment when it’s right for them. Patients also benefit from flexible options including zero interest (when paid in full during the promotional period)* and extended term plans up to 84 months as well as a streamlined process with no hard credit checks or extra fees.
“Using PatientFi’s financing for egg donation provides a pathway to transform dreams into reality, making the journey to parenthood more accessible and manageable,” said Vanessa Suker, Strategic Partnerships Manager at PatientFi. “It’s a tool that helps ease financial barriers, empowering hope and determination to lead the way.”
By combining Fairfax EggBank’s frozen donor egg bank services with PatientFi’s flexible financing options, aspiring parents can now navigate their fertility journey with less stress and fewer financial constraints.
