The CDC's own guidance says "comparisons between clinics should be made with caution", because clinics "have different patient populations or ART treatment methods".

What each clinic posts on its website

IVF, as its website posts it
California Center for Reproductive Health publishes an Access IVF price of $10,995 for one IVF cycle. The clinic lists ultrasound monitoring, bloodwork, egg retrieval, ICSI fertilization, and a fresh embryo transfer if medically recommended. The program is intended for patients who have not previously undergone IVF, have tried and not succeeded with less-invasive fertility treatment, and meet medical criteria after consultation and diagnostic evaluation. The clinic's separate 2026 cost article identifies fertility medications as not included; the Access IVF page does not separately specify coverage for PGT, embryo freezing or storage, or a frozen embryo transfer. The clinic lists this program for its Los Angeles-area locations, including West Hollywood at 9201 West Sunset Boulevard, Suite 202, West Hollywood, CA 90069.

Small-group plans only have to offer infertility coverage, and the state employees' plan (CalPERS) follows from July 1, 2027. Fertility preservation: Fertility preservation is a covered basic health service when a covered treatment may cause infertility (all plans except Medi-Cal and self-insured plans). 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.
