Gestational Carrier Arrangements

When intended parents have already identified a potential gestational carrier, the consultation and evaluation process involves three parts – a psychoeducational consultation session for the intended parents, a psychological evaluation of the gestational carrier (which includes administration of a standardized personality measure and a clinical interview with the gestational carrier and her spouse/partner, if applicable), and a joint meeting with the intended parents and gestational carrier (and the gestational carrier’s spouse/partner, if applicable). At the conclusion of these three sessions, a report will be provided for your fertility clinic and/or attorneys. Consultation and interview sessions are approximately 55 minutes each. The administration of the personality measure takes approximately 45-60 minutes.

Scheduling and Costs

$800

Consultation and evaluation services are charged at a self-pay rate; insurances do not cover these types of services, therefore we are unable to bill insurance for these sessions. Also note that the intended parent(s) are responsible for payment of all sessions involved in Gestational Carrier or Known Donor arrangements, even sessions attended by only the gestational carrier or known donor.
