North America's largest network of fertility providers honors US service members with special offer to those who require reproductive medicine to help build their families. HOUSTON , Nov. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Prelude Network ® (Prelude), the largest network of fertility clinics in North America , celebrates National Veteran and Military Families Month by expanding accessibility to premium reproductive services to veterans and active-duty personnel through its Military Families Month campaign.
Throughout November, US Prelude clinics will offer 15% off fertility services to members of the US Armed Forces for a range of services, including consultations, ultrasounds, bloodwork, and treatment options like intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Prelude's Military Families Month campaign comes on the heels of the Department of Defense (DOD) expanding fertility services for active-duty service members, regardless of marital status, and permitting the use of donor eggs, sperm, or embryos, although paid surrogacy remains excluded. In 2024, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) also updated its policy to mirror these changes, providing IVF access to eligible veterans regardless of marital status and allowing for donor gametes.
Limitations remain, as both the DOD and VA require a service-connected cause of infertility to access fertility benefits. Prelude's Military Families Month campaign extends to service members regardless of their marital statu.
