We cover 50 per cent of the treatment costs for artificial insemination under certain conditions. This cover also extends to any medication prescribed in connection with this treatment. The share we cover is billed directly via the eHealth card.
More details
We pay a further allowance of up to 500 EUR towards your share of the costs for in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
For us to share in the costs certain conditions must be met:
- TK must approve the treatment plan before the start of treatment.
- The couple must be married. If only one married partner is insured with us, we can only cover the costs incurred for this person. Please send us the invoice for your share of the costs.
- Only the egg and sperm cells of the couple may be used.
- Both married partners must be at least 25 years old. The woman must be below 40 at the time of artificial insemination and the man must be under 50.
In addition, the doctor must regard the chances of a pregnancy as good. After 3unsuccessful attempts, pregnancy is no longer considered likely.
It is up to the doctor to decide whether the medical requirements for artificial insemination are met.
