How does medical insurance work in surrogacy?
Posted by amelia on April 8, 2022 at 12:40 amDoes the surrogate’s insurance cover the pregnancy, or do we need to purchase a separate plan?

Your surrogate’s medical insurance may or may not cover surrogacy pregnancies. You will need to ask her employer or her husband’s employer. If not, you will need to purchase a plan on the ACA marketplace.

If you do have to purchase a policy, doing it during open enrollment is the most affordable but you can also purchase private plans throughout the year. We used a company called Art Risk to help us pick a plan. I highly recommend this because they make sure you get a plan that covers everything you need and eliminates a lot of the risk so there aren’t surprises down the line.

@AliMon611 I totally agree with you on this. I can’t imagine navigating the open enrollment on my own – and I think they have a few different options for service and nothing is super crazy expensive (I think). Did you use them to do an insurance review, by chance?
