The Center for Assisted Reproduction grants a financial subsidy to persons with infertility, treatable primarily by ART methods and more specifically by in vitro fertilization in the presence of the following indications:

• tubal sterility in women (ICD-X: N97.1)

• male factor-related sterility (ICD-X: N97.4)

• female sterility associated with lack of ovulation due to LUFS

• infertility with an etiology not clarified by conventional diagnostic methods

• proven monogenic genetic disease or proven balanced chromosomal mutation in at least one of the partners;
