Seeking fertility treatment in India can be a life-changing decision. With its advanced medical technologies, skilled professionals, and more affordable pricing compared to many Western countries, India is a top destination for reproductive care. However, even when costs are lower, the financial burden of traveling abroad and paying for treatment upfront can be overwhelming. That’s where patient financing becomes essential.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through what patient financing is, why it matters for fertility treatment, and how Better by MTA supports patients in navigating their medical travel financing needs—clearly, confidently, and without selling financial products.
Understanding the Cost of Fertility Treatment Abroad
Fertility care abroad—including IVF, egg freezing, ICSI, or surrogacy—often costs significantly less than it does in the U.S., UK, or parts of Europe. But even with these savings, patients are still responsible for:
- Initial consultations and diagnostics
- Medical procedures (e.g., IVF cycles or embryo transfers)
- Medications
- Travel and accommodation
- Follow-up appointments
Combined, these expenses can require thousands of dollars upfront—money many people don’t have readily available.
What Is Patient Financing?
Patient financing is a way for individuals to break down the cost of healthcare into manageable monthly payments. Instead of paying everything at once, you get the flexibility to spread payments over time—helping you start your treatment sooner without sacrificing financial stability.
It’s not about taking on unnecessary debt; it’s about giving yourself options when your budget can’t keep up with medical timelines. This is especially helpful for time-sensitive procedures like fertility treatments, where delays could affect outcomes.
Common Questions About Financing Fertility Abroad
Can I finance my treatment abroad?
Yes. Many patients who travel for healthcare abroad explore financing options to cover costs such as IVF cycles, travel expenses, or medications. Financing gives you the breathing room to focus on treatment instead of finances.
What if I don’t have insurance?
Most insurance plans don’t cover international fertility treatments—or fertility services at all. This makes financing especially important, allowing you to move forward without waiting years to save up.
Are monthly payment plans available?
Absolutely. Depending on your eligibility and the plan you choose, monthly payments can be customized to suit your financial situation. This includes payments before, during, or even after your trip abroad.
Why Upfront Costs Are Still a Challenge—Even When Treatment Is “Affordable”
People often assume that medical tourism is cheap enough to skip financing. But “cheaper” doesn’t always mean “accessible.” You may still be looking at:
- $3,000–$6,000 or more per IVF cycle
- Several thousand dollars in travel and lodging
- Unexpected costs like extra medications or procedures
Without insurance or a financial cushion, that can be difficult to manage all at once—especially for young couples, single parents, or people exploring treatment after already spending heavily at home.
