With Arkansas fertility insurance, you do have some benefits, albeit limited. If you have an individual or group policy that includes maternity benefits, IVF must also be covered, as well as cryopreservation. But, there is a lifetime cap of just $15,000 here. You also can’t just move right to IVF. First, you must try a less costly fertility approach such as undergoing an intrauterine insemination (IUI). Also, HMO’s and employers who self-insure are exempt.
