A patient recently asked me how to compare IVF prices across clinics, and I wanted to share this with the group. It's free, and it's exactly the kind of thing I wish existed when more of us were starting out.
INCIID has been working on a new IVF Cost Registry focused specifically on clinic transparency in pricing.
We have now researched more than 530 IVF clinics to see what they themselves make public about treatment costs: what is included, what may be left out, and how easy or difficult it is for patients to find meaningful pricing before treatment.
One important distinction: INCIID does not use pricing from aggregators, directories, review sites, or other third-party sources. If we identify a price as clinic-published, it comes from the clinic itself. We want patients to know what the clinic itself is willing to stand behind publicly.
The registry is also much more than a list of prices. Each clinic listing, and each patient cost estimate, can be personalized to the treatment you are actually considering, whether that is standard IVF, IVF with ICSI, donor egg IVF, donor s***m IVF, or another treatment path.
You can even use the tool while you are on the phone with a clinic - if they will give you the pricing. As you enter what the clinic tells you, the form helps identify missing or unclear details. When you reach the end, it gives you specific questions to ask the clinic based on what you still don't know, so you can work toward a more realistic estimate of what treatment may actually cost.
You can then print the results and take them with you to a consultation, compare them with other clinics, and save your information anonymously if you choose.
If your clinic isn't showing pricing yet, that usually means they haven't published any, or we haven't added it, and you can help by submitting a quote. Patients can submit actual quotes anonymously to help others.
Clinics can also submit and update their own pricing directly to INCIID, and we confirm clinic-submitted information before marking it as verified.
Some clinics are very transparent about pricing. Many still are not. Our goal is not to rank clinics by medical quality or tell anyone where to seek treatment. It is to help patients see what clinics actually publish, identify what may be missing, ask better questions, and understand the likely cost before making a major financial commitment.

If you have a moment, I would genuinely appreciate your feedback on what would make it even more useful for patients. And if you have any questions, I would be happy to answer them; you can email us at [email protected]
