Question St. Louis/Metro East area cysters!

Simply put: I'm looking for a job that has some kind of infertility coverage with the insurance. Illinois is mandated, so something over there would be good. Just looking for suggestions if anyone here has coverage or knows anyone who has. I just need the company. I'll pursue a job on my own from there. Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure what type of job you're looking for, but many people get jobs at Starbucks because of their health insurance program. Not sure about infertility coverage though.

If 'pcos' is in your records, and you've had a lapse in coverage, you might have a hard time with many plans. Are you on Cobra?

starla - the hospitals have good health insurance. have you considered alternative remedies, like Soy....which works similar to clomid, and Vitex......which works with the pituatary gland to balance hormones?

sheri - have you checked you insurance list of dr's? and into the infertility clinics in that area? i haven't seen dr's in St Louis, but you know there are some good ones there, because it's a big city.
