Ontario Funds Fertility Treatments at 50 Clinics

Monday, December 21, 2015

Starting today, Ontario is making fertility treatments more accessible by contributing to the cost of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and unlimited rounds of artificial insemination for eligible people at fertility clinics across the province.

Across the province, 50 clinics will now be offering government-funded fertility treatments. Patients with medical issues causing infertility as well as patients with non-medical forms of infertility, such as single people or same-sex couples, are eligible under the new Fertility Program.

Ontario is also helping to grow families by strengthening the adoption system to help more children and youth find forever homes, and to help more families care for their adopted children and youth.
