* Fees requested by donors vary. CSED, Inc. adheres to the guidelines established by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine regarding financial compensation of oocyte donors which states that compensation “in excess of $5,000 requires justification and sums above $10,000 are not appropriate.”

** The precise amount of the medical expenses is set by your fertility clinic. You should contact your clinic directly to receive information about the amount you will be charged for the screening, IVF cycle, and medications. Some insurance companies may cover a portion of the medical expenses. Again, you need to contact your clinic for more information about insurance coverage.

 

 


Timing of Payments

Once you have selected a donor and she has committed to working with you, we will email you a donor match confirmation packet. That packet will include an invoice outlining the fees and expenses for your match. You will be required to sign the Egg Donation Service Agreement. You also will be referred to the law firm of Nichols & DeLisle, P.C. to represent you in the egg donor contract between you and your donor. In order to secure your match, you will need to:

  • Sign and return the Egg Donation Service Agreement

  • Sign and return the Agreement for Legal Services

  • Pay the Agency fee ($5,000), Legal Fees for Intended Parents ($850) and Trust

  • Account Management Fee ($400), Total $6,250

  • Provide an Initial Trust Account Deposit of $1,500

(The initial deposit will be used to pay the donor’s attorney fee of $500 and to cover any expenses incurred by the donor prior to the trust account being fully funded. The $1,500 will be applied toward the total amount that will be needed to cover the donor’s fee and expenses.)

Within a few weeks after we receive your paperwork and payment, you will receive the first draft of the Egg Donor Agreement. You will be asked to fund the remainder of the trust account to cover the donor’s fee and expenses when you return the signed Egg Donor Agreement. Your donor cycle will not begin until all of the paperwork is received and the trust account has been fully funded.
