In vitro fertilisation

With in-vitro fertilization (IVF), egg and sperm cells are brought together in the laboratory to enable fertilization. An embryo grows from the fertilized egg and is placed in the uterus. If a pregnancy occurs after this, we call it a test tube baby.

We divide the medicines used for this into three groups, called lump sums for Medically Assisted Reproduction (MBV):

  • MBV 1 : medicines for the in vitro fertilization itself;
  • MBV 2 : medicines for egg donation;
  • MBV 3 : drugs for ultrauterine insemination or for the stimulation of follicular development.

The lump sums cover all costs for pharmaceutical specialties, even if the treatment is stopped. This does not apply to a donor. The same arrangement applies to intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

Send CM your application form

During your consultation with the gynecologist you will receive a completed application form:

  • or your gynecologist will give you that form and you submit it to CM's consulting physician.
  • or the gynecologist sends that form directly to CM's consulting physician

After approval, you only pay the co-payment

After approval by the advising doctor, you will receive a reimbursement from the health insurance for these MBV lump sums (if the cycle has been completed completely) and you only pay the co-payment.

Maximum 6 treatment cycles

You can be approved for up to six treatment cycles.
