Prospective Gestational Carrier or Egg Donor Evaluations

Individuals who would like to become a gestational carrier or egg donor are often required to complete a psychological evaluation prior to being accepted by an egg bank or agency that facilitates donor or gestational carrier matching. An evaluation includes a clinical interview (the gestational carrier’s or donor’s spouse/partner, if applicable, must also attend this interview session) and the administration of a standardized personality assessment. Occasionally, a second interview session may be needed. A report is provided for the agency or attorney. Interview sessions are approximately 55 minutes each. The administration of the personality measure takes approximately 45-60 minutes.

Scheduling and Costs

$500

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.
