For intended parents

Understanding surrogacy costs.

Planning for surrogacy is personal. A clear conversation about the parts of a journey can help you understand what to ask, what to compare, and what information you still need.

Plan with clarity

There isn’t one price that fits every journey.

Total expenses can vary based on individual circumstances, clinical recommendations, insurance, location, and the agreements made by everyone involved. Request a written, itemized estimate before making financial decisions.

01

Agency and coordination

Ask what support, matching, coordination, and case-management services are included, and which services may be billed separately.

02

Surrogate-related expenses

Discuss compensation, reimbursements, benefits, travel, and other agreed expenses with the agency and your independent legal counsel.

03

Clinical care and medication

Your fertility clinic can explain its treatment, screening, medication, and procedure fees based on your care plan.

04

Legal, insurance, and escrow

Ask qualified professionals about contract review, insurance coverage, escrow administration, and any related service charges.
