Egg Donor Compensation

Long Island IVF is a member of The American Society for Reproductive Medicine, which maintains that a donor should be paid for her time and effort.

The Society believes that paying a donor for her eggs approaches the marketing of human organs and biological tissue. As a result, guidelines set by the organization require that a flat fee be set which is not dependent on the number of eggs produced. Long Island IVF recognizes the emotional and physical hardship placed on the egg donor. Upon completion of the donor cycle, the donor will be compensated $6,000.00 for her time and generosity. However, the donor's greatest compensation may be her sense of fulfillment for providing the recipient with the opportunity to realize their dream of a family.

The donor is required to have health insurance coverage. If she does not, health insurance is provided by special arrangement through Long Island IVF. The health insurance covers emergency medical procedures for three months, one month prior to and for two months after the completion of the donor procedure. The cost to the donor is only $100.00. This fee is subtracted from the total compensation.
