It’s open enrollment season, and we’re turning to one of Illume’s Financial Counselors, Deb, to get some expert advice. Her first nugget of wisdom? Take a closer look at your insurance coverage! It’s great to see that you have some fertility coverage, but don’t stop there—always ask if specific tests, procedures, or treatment types are included. Many plans only cover diagnostics, which can lead to unexpected costs when it’s time for treatment. Make sure you have ALL the details to be fully prepared. #FertilityInsurance #FertilityJourney #OpenEnrollment #ProTip #FertilityCare
