One in six people globally is affected by infertility—and that means getting pregnant can be expensive. Today, we'll talk about the different types of fertility treatments available like IUI and IVF, how to budget for those costs, and some of the ethical implications of the topic at large.
We'll also be joined by Arielle Bogorad, the SVP of Employer Market Strategy at Progyny, an organization offering comprehensive fertility and family building benefits to more than 5M people across the United States. She'll share more on how to navigate the US healthcare system, what to ask your insurance providers, and how we can advocate for inclusive coverage at a policy level.
