EGG DONOR PAY & COMPENSATION

BEING AN EGG DONOR IS REWARDING IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE

Egg donors make family possible for people who want to be parents. Here’s how Growing Generations egg donors are compensated and what expenses are covered during the egg donation process.

HOW MUCH ARE EGG DONORS COMPENSATED?

Becoming an egg donor is doubly rewarding, you help intended parents build their family and receive financial compensation. Egg donors are not paid for selling their eggs, and they receive compensation for the pain and suffering involved in the egg donation process. Egg donor compensation looks like this:

HOW ARE EGG DONORS PAID?

​Egg donor payments are broken into two disbursements. The first payment made to an egg donor is $750 and is paid upon the start of injectable medications. The balance of an egg donor’s compensation is paid after the completion of the egg retrieval procedure regardless of the number of eggs retrieved. Your egg donation compensation will be in the form of direct deposits or mailed checks. From reimbursements to your final compensation, our finance team will make sure you receive any payments or reimbursements in a timely manner.

WHAT OTHER EXPENSES ARE COVERED?

Egg donors are eligible for many benefits and expenses related to the egg donation cycle, including:

LEGAL FEES

As an egg donor, you will enter into a legal agreement with your intended parents prior to starting injectable cycle medications. You will be provided with an independent attorney. Your attorney will walk you through your contract with your intended parents to ensure you have a full understanding of the legal process as it relates to your egg donation cycle.

While complications are rare, we don’t take chances. You will be 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.

We want you to feel supported and comfortable. You will choose a companion to accompany you from the egg retrieval back home or back to the hotel. You will not be released from the IVF clinic after your egg retrieval if you are alone. If you must fly for the egg retrieval procedure, your companion’s meals and airfare will be paid for. You and your companion will share a hotel room and ground transportation whenever possible.

DISCLAIMER

Egg donation involves a screening process. Not all potential egg donors are selected. Not all selected egg donors receive the monetary amounts or compensation advertised. As with any medical procedure, there may be risks associated with human egg donation. Before an egg donor agrees to begin the egg donation process, and signs a legally binding contract, she is required to receive specific information on the known risks of egg donation. Consultation with your doctor prior to entering into a donor contract is advised.

HOW MANY TIMES CAN I DONATE MY EGGS?

You can donate your eggs up to six times. After the egg retrieval is complete, one of our admissions specialists will request the medical records from your egg donation cycle. An IVF physician will review your medical records and make a recommendation as to whether you are able to return to the program to complete additional egg donation cycles.
