“In vitro fertilization (fresh IVF cycle).”
Stated limit

Can part-time Wells Fargo workers use it?
Eligibility decides whether a benefit is worth taking a job for, so this is the line to confirm before anything else.
Part-time workers can qualify: benefits are open to regular and fixed-term employees regularly scheduled for 17.5 or more hours a week.
“You’re eligible for the benefits inside this guide if you’re a regular or fixed term employee regularly scheduled to work 17.5 or more hours per week.”
The limit beside what IVF costs
A benefit limit means little until it sits next to the price of a cycle.
Wells Fargo: stated limit
$25,000 lifetime, plus $10,000 for drugs
US: one cycle all in
$25,000–$32,000
With medications ($3,000–$7,000) and the common add-ons. How it adds up
- $25,000 is roughly one typical cycle, less if you add genetic testing or need a second retrieval.
These are cash prices. A plan pays its own negotiated rates, and you still owe its deductible and coinsurance, so treat this as a rough guide.
Six things to ask Wells Fargo before you count on it
A public benefits page is a summary. The plan document for your own plan and location is what the plan pays by.
- 1.What is the lifetime maximum, and do fertility drugs count toward it or have their own limit?
- 2.When does coverage start after my hire date, and how many hours a week do I need to keep it?
- 3.Do I need an infertility diagnosis, or prior authorization, before treatment is covered?
- 4.Which fertility clinics near me are in network, and what do I pay if mine is not?
- 5.What are the deductible, the coinsurance and the out-of-pocket maximum on the plan the benefit sits in?
- 6.Are egg freezing, donor eggs or sperm, genetic testing of embryos and embryo storage covered?
State insurance laws reach only fully-insured plans, and 67% of covered US workers are in self-funded employer plans, which set their own fertility benefits whatever the state requires. About 50% of employers with 500 or more workers now cover IVF. A large employer's plan is usually self-funded (80% of covered workers at large firms are in one), so what Wells Fargo chooses to cover matters more than your state's IVF insurance law.
