Quebec Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR) Program

Origin Sperm Bank is proud to support the Province of Quebec’s Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR) program, which provides reimbursement for donor sperm where eligibility criteria is met for Quebec residents. 

 

Our goal is to make donor sperm ordering and reimbursement as easy as possible. Please place your order well in advance of your treatment date.  Orders placed less than seven days prior to your treatment may not be fulfilled in time.


If you are a resident of a Canadian province other than Quebec, please seek guidance from your assisted reproduction practitioner or provincial Ministry of Health for information on publicly funded treatments.

 

Ordering donor sperm under MAR

 

After you have selected your donor, use the online order form to select your clinic.

Ensure you select one that indicates “MAR/PMA” to be sure it qualifies for reimbursement.

 

 

1. Complete the order form with required information: 

  • Be sure to select “Order Vials to Ship”
  • If your procedure is an Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), select “Washed or Un-Washed” for Vial Type
  • If your procedure is an IVF, you can select any vial type (Washed, Un-Washed, IVF-ICSI) of the available options
  • Only one vial is permitted (any order for more than one vial is automatically cancelled)

2. Shipping costs may be partially covered under MAR.

Please refer to the table below for your Patient Portion of Shipping Cost which you will pay once you submit your order. 

 

When Origin receives your order, we will confirm with your clinic that you’re eligible for MAR coverage.

Once confirmation from your clinic is provided, we will confirm your order for shipping.
