Oncofertility: Fighting for Fertility Preservation Coverage


Listen Later

Oncofertility Series – Part 2 of 4. When Amanda Rice was diagnosed with breast cancer her doctors recommended an aggressive treatment protocol that would potentially threaten her fertility. She had some infertility health insurance but when she called the insurance company she found that they had illogical barriers that excluded her from coverage for fertility preservation. Now, a cancer survivor, Amanda has created Chick Mission, a non-profit organization relentlessly focused on critical issues unique to cancer patients – including fertility challenges that may follow after surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and drug treatment. Today’s host is Lissa Kline, VP of Provider and Member Services at Progyny. Guests include: Amanda Rice from Chick Mission, Dr. Jennifer Levine from Alliance of Fertility Preservation and Weill Cornell Medicine, and Dr. Thomas Molinaro from RMA of NJ.
