Three industry leaders, Costco, Sesame, and IVI RMA North America, announced a strategic partnership to transform how fertility care is accessed in the U.S. and address the biggest barriers to care for the 1 in 6 Americans who suffer from infertility and wish to build their family. The collaboration delivers widespread access to high quality fertility care and advanced reproductive medicine specialists, affordable and competitive pricing, and coordinated care throughout the fertility journey. As part of a monthly membership agreement, Costco members gain immediate access to Sesame fertility care coordination, complete diagnostic workups, and a clear path to specialty treatment.

With a universal intake policy, every patient starts with Sesame and receives a comprehensive intake evaluation, coordinated diagnostic support, and a referral to highly-experienced specialty care with IVI RMA North America when clinically appropriate. Patients arrive at IVI RMA North America clinics informed, prepared, and ready to focus on personalized fertility planning and treatment. Fertility medications are fulfilled by Costco, with exclusive Member pricing that includes savings of up to 80% on medications like Follistim through pharmacy programs. This dramatically reduces one of the biggest out-of-pocket expenses in fertility care, saving patients thousands of dollars on each cycle.

If specialty care is advised, patients are directly connected to IVI RMA, where additional discounts have been negotiated for Costco members. IVI RMA provides high-acuity specialty care including IVF and IUI through its cutting-edge clinics with industry-leading success rates. Throughout treatment, patients retain their Sesame clinician as a dedicated partner for medical guidance, including medical terminology translation, emotional support, and care coordination, ensuring continuity of care, clarity, and a high level of personalized attention.
