Bulk-billed IVF

Lower-cost IVF services with minimal or no out-of-pocket fees.

Costs and funding

Several Australian providers offer bulk-billed or low-cost IVF, where Medicare covers most of the treatment fee. Services usually differ from full-service clinics in scheduling flexibility, choice of specialist, included add-ons and the cost of medicines, anaesthetics and day-surgery fees. Compare what is genuinely included before assuming it is the cheaper route overall.

Also known as: low cost IVF, budget IVF, no gap IVF
