Hi all,*
*
I was wondering whether I can have a private attempt at IVF whilst waiting for NHS funding. I've been told my wait for NHS funded treatment could be 1 year.
Below is my CCGs criteria that I found online- does the bit in bold mean I'll still be eligible if I have a non-nhs funded cycle? (I assume by this it's means private?)
"Couples will not be funded if either partner has already had three previous fresh cycles of IVF, with or without ICSI, irrespective of how these were funded.
This means that eligible couples will be funded:
- Two fresh cycles of IVF, with or without ICSI, if no previous fresh cycles
have been funded by the NHS,
_ *or if they have already received one non-
NHS funded fresh cycle*_
- One fresh cycle of IVF, with or without ICSI, if the couple has already
received one NHS funded fresh cycle or two non-NHS funded fresh cycles"
Thank you. XxX
