Cut Gonal F Prices

Follitropin Alfa (Gonal F) costs can seem daunting, especially if your employer does not provide infertility insurance coverage - as many do not. 

You can use your employer's FSA to cut your Gonal F prices, and provide you with interest free infertility & IVF financing at the same time.  Read below to learn more.

Let the IRS Cut Gonal F Rates

Your Gonal F costs are tax deductible.  You can discount Gonal F prices by offsetting tax savings.  You have two options, but one is clearly superior:

Take an itemized medical deduction on your IRS Schedule A.  Beware - the first 7.5% of your adjusted gross income will be subtracted from the total of your total Gonal F costs to determine your amount of tax savings. 

For example, if your adjusted gross income is $100,000 this means no tax savings on the first $7,500 of Gonal F costs. 

A Healthcare Flexible Spending Account (FSA) allows you to realize tax savings on your very first dollar of Gonal F costs, plus you may also reduce the amount of State, and FICA taxes you pay. 

An FSA may generate tax savings of 1/3 or more for all your fertility drug costs.  For example: a couple in the 25% federal income tax bracket paying FICA taxes of 7.65% saves a total of 32.65%.

In addition, you may get an interest free loan!
