Cost and access context
AFCC's current Chicago/Illinois price page says its figures apply to patients without fertility-treatment insurance, not to a River North-only fee schedule. It lists IVF at $13,200 to $15,000 without PGT and $17,500 to $19,000 with PGT; medications are separate and other treatment details affect the total. It also lists egg freezing at $7,800 to $9,000, IUI at $2,500 to $3,500, and FET at $4,950 to $7,000, with procedure-specific inclusions described on the page. AFCC lists insurers and fertility-benefit programs, subject to plan review. Request a written River North estimate that identifies treatment, medication, testing, laboratory services, storage, insurance application, and other charges. A River North-specific virtual-consultation workflow is not documented in the reviewed sources.
