			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received an email from Deedee of Visit and Care recently explaining the services that they offer to those of us looking to have IVF treatment. No we know how difficult it is to choose which clinic to go to, it&#8217;s the part that we struggled with the most, and to have a service where somebody who knows the process is there to hold your hand and help you through it sounds like a brilliant idea &#8211; especially when it does not cost you any extra! I asked Deedee if she would write a little about their services so that I could post it here. Check it out, and if you want to contact Deedee all her details are at the bottom of this post.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what Deedee says:</p>
<h3>Why choose VisitandCare.com?</h3>
<p>The cost of IVF can vary greatly between destination and between clinics in those destinations. Patients researching the cost of IVF often consider options with infertility clinics at home as well as abroad. For many patients, the cost of IVF treatment can be up to 70% lower abroad. <a href="http://www.visitandcare.com/" target="_blank">www.visitandcare.com</a> is dedicated to providing patients with all options when it comes to finding the treatment destination that is right for them.</p>
<p>We can provide the costs for the following treatments for both heterosexual and non heterosexual patients seeking IVF:</p>
<p>IVF with ICSI</p>
<p>IVF with Egg Donation</p>
<p>IVF with Sperm Donation</p>
<p>IVF with Embryo Donation</p>
<p>IVF with Gender Selection</p>
<p>Micro TESE</p>
<p>Surrogacy</p>
<p>Surrogacy with Egg Donation</p>
<p>Researching the different treatment options can be time consuming and confusing &#8211; that&#8217;s where <a href="http://www.visitandcare.com/" target="_blank">www.visitandcare.com</a> can help. As medical facilitators, our patient coordinators work with IVF clinics and hospitals in 15 countries worldwide and help patients contact these clinics to ask questions, book treatment and research their options. Services through <a href="http://www.visitandcare.com/" target="_blank">www.visitandcare.com</a> are free to patients &#8211; if the IVF treatment costs $5,000 in your chosen destination, then that is the price you pay. Our patient coordinators are available by phone or online to answer any questions you may have throughout the IVF process.</p>
<p>Some of our service benefits include:</p>
<p>* Free-Instant Online Quotes</p>
<p>* Personal relationship with our Patient Coordinators to ensure that all of your questions and concerns are addressed in a timely manner.</p>
<p>* Secure and sufficient communication with doctor and/or medical staff</p>
<p>* Virtual Consultations with our highly trained and experienced medical professionals</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have just stumbled across a site that is providing scholarships to those in need for IVF treatment in the USA &#8211; and the good news is that they have twice as many available this year!</p>
<p>Quoting from thier site:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">The InterNational Council for Infertility Information Dissemination (INCIID &#8212; pronounced &ldquo;inside&rdquo;) has a program designed to help individuals and couples &#8212; <em>From INCIID the Heart</em><strong> </strong>&#8211; It provides&nbsp;an &nbsp;In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Scholarship to those in need.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">&nbsp;</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">Nancy Hemenway, INCIID Founder and Executive Director says that &ldquo;infertility care is sometimes portrayed as &lsquo;wealthy couples creating designer babies.&rsquo;<span>&nbsp; </span>That&rsquo;s because only about 10% of insurance carriers cover IVF.<span>&nbsp; </span>But nothing could be further from the truth.<span>&nbsp; </span>The <em>From INCIID the Heart</em>&nbsp;is an&nbsp;important step in helping to eliminate the barrier preventing many couples from having children.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">&nbsp;</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">There are at least five million infertile couples in the U.S., and of those, approximately <br />two million are unable to conceive without IVF treatment.<span>&nbsp; </span>The majority have no insurance coverage for IVF and its associated medications, which can range in cost between $10,000 and $15,000 per couple. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">&nbsp;</span></span></p>

The program will cover most of the basic IVF expenses. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;"></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">Couples with financial and medical need may be eligible for participation in the program. Final committee selections and decisions take cost-of-living in different regions of the country into account<span>&nbsp; </span>Applicants will be required to provide copies of their most recent tax returns and paystubs and supply a letter from their doctor recommending IVF as medically necessary.<span>&nbsp;&nbsp;Those selected will also partner with INCIID and have a small fund raising requirement.</span></span></span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 18pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;"></span><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">&nbsp;</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">&ldquo;Our goal,&rdquo; says Hemenway, &ldquo;is to give those without insurance coverage an opportunity to fulfill their dream of becoming parents.</span></span></p>
