IVF Treatment Is Expensive—Costco Will Now Offer Cheaper Access

A new partnership between Costco, Sesame (a cash-pay health care marketplace), and IVI RMA (a network of fertility clinics) aims to lower some of the major barriers Americans face when seeking fertility treatment. On Monday, the companies announced that for $99 a month with a Costco membership (or $119 without), you can meet virtually with a doctor of your choosing on the Sesame platform for a fertility intake and diagnostic workup. That means bypassing often months-long wait times to get an appointment with a specialist. From there, Sesame links you with an IVI RMA clinic in your area—over 85% of them are within 25 miles of a Costco—to coordinate treatments like IVF (in vitro fertilization) or IUI (intrauterine insemination), at reduced pricing, with drugs also discounted via Costco’s specialty pharmacy.
