Approach to Treatment

  The Evan David Foundation was founded to give financial assistance to infertile families in the Delaware area who want to have a baby, but need the help of qualified reproductive endocrinology and infertility subspecialists.  Commonly there is a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation required, followed by specific treatment recommendations.  Some of the common diseases associated with infertility and/or miscarriage in women and men are: • Endometriosis and pelvic pain • Pelvic scarring and disease of the fallopian tubes • Uterine fibroids and polyps • Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) • Poor sperm production • Aging effects on the ovaries Many patients have some health insurance to cover the costs associated with diagnostic testing and outpatient surgical procedures, which often can successfully treat underlying disease.  But many other patients ultimately require advanced assisted reproductive technologies, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) to help them conceive.  Often, health insurance plans in Delaware fall short in covering IVF, even when it is clearly deemed medically necessary and in the best interests of the patient. Fertility subspecialists approved by the Evan David Foundation have both a commitment and a highly successful track record offering the safest, successful, and most cost-effective IVF treatments available.  Their goal is to utilize the latest technology to achieve a low risk, singleton pregnancy. For patients who have been told by a qualified fertility doctor that IVF treatment is their best option for success, perhaps the Evan David Foundation can assist you with some of the expenses.  The Foundation gives grants to individuals based on both their medical and financial needs.   To apply for a grant, please go to the Application/ Forms section of this website.
