| I have read online that they dont cover infertility or investigation into it....would and HSG be considered as an infertility procedure? Has anyone claimed for it? |

I have, I claimed it as an "investigation xray into polycystic ovaries" and they covered it  Just don't mention it's related to infertility.------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Good luck - just be aware if you have complained in the past (no matter how long ago about 'womans issues' (eg painful period) they can say no. I am still pretty angry about their treatment of me. I hope your run with them is better! Good luck! |

| Thanks Sag76 - My referral is from a fertility group so im hoping thats not against me. Worth a try i guess? I have never had any issues with periods. Might give the specialist a call and see if they can shed any light on how i go about claiming.ie. what reasons they have given the radiology place. |

When my FA Dr referred me for a lap operation, she wrote the referral on her 'Angelsea Women's' letterhead rather than her FA letterhead (since she, like most lady-bits Drs, works at a number of places). Is this an option for you? -------------

I paid for mine myself and then claimed after the event, that way I had a receipt from Auckland Radiology and there was no reference to the fertility clinic. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">
