Hi, are you in Blue Shield PPO plan? I was in Blue Shield HMO plan last year, it did not cover anything (ZERO!) of my treatment. So, I guess maybe PPO gives better coverage?

Thanks.

Hi Lynne - hope you haven't waited too long for a response, I've been out.

Yes, we are on their PPO plan through my husband's company, which is a technology company in Santa Monica. Don't know why these benefits are so good, it's kind of crazy.

HMOs in general, from what I've been told, shy away from anything "experimental" - yes, apparently infertility "issues" can be considered experimental - is that a joke, or what?!??! Not that I'm laughing!

Happy to pass along any info that I can that will be of help to you.
