Become an Egg Donor FAQ
This is completely up to you. IVF1Match is unique in that each egg donor can determine their own compensation. It is not dictated by an agency. It is important to understand that you are being compensated for everything you have to do in the egg donation process, including screening, monitoring, exams, and egg retrieval. You are not being paid for how many eggs you produce. Donors are compensated for every donation.
Sometimes egg donors, through no fault of their own, may not respond well to fertility medications. If that happens, you will still receive some compensation depending on how much of the process was completed. However, if the doctor is forced to cancel a donation because you didn’t show up for monitoring when you were supposed to or didn’t follow instructions, you may not receive compensation.
At IVF1Match, we follow national safety guidelines for egg donors. We will allow you to donate as many as six times. After your egg retrieval is complete, our board certified fertility specialists will review how you did during the cycle and determine whether you are eligible to return to the program to complete additional egg donation cycles.
All medical screening costs, medications, and medical expenses related to the egg donation cycle are paid for by the recipient or the recipient’s health insurance. Egg donors gain valuable knowledge about their genetic, physical, and reproductive health as a result of the screening process.
Complications resulting from egg donation are rare. To ensure your safety and peace of mind, all egg donors are provided with an egg donation cycle insurance policy. This insurance policy will be used to cover medical expenses for any complication that arises as a result of the egg donation process. The same doctors who take care of you during the egg donation process will care for you if you have a complication.
When deciding on what your compensation should be, you should keep in mind any travel expenses you may incur. This is especially true if you live far away and will need to fly to Illinois, as our state-of-the-art IVF center is located just outside of Chicago.
Recipients will pay for all travel, or, if they are donating to IVF1, the office will cover travel expenses.
No! Unlike donor agencies, which take a big percentage of the egg donor's compensation, your compensation is yours. Like any income, the amount your receive for egg donation is subject to being taxed. You will receive a U.S. 1099 form so you can report your compensation as an independent contractor.
