Services for infertility treatment
We support couples with an unfulfilled desire to have children by providing a subsidy for the costs of artificial insemination
Unintended childlessness can have various causes. Infertility affects both women and men equally. Often, reduced fertility in both partners can stand in the way of having a child. Therefore, assisted reproduction can be a solution for childless couples when the desire to have a child cannot be fulfilled naturally.
To what extent does SBK cover the costs?
The first point of contact for couples facing unintentional childlessness is usually their general practitioner, who can then refer them to a specialist. However, you are also welcome to contact a specialist directly.
If you decide to undergo artificial insemination, we will cover up to 50% of the costs, provided certain conditions are met.
We can contribute to the costs of artificial insemination under the following legally defined conditions:
How does artificial insemination work?
Pregnancy through artificial insemination can be achieved using various treatment methods. The process begins with thorough medical consultation, examination, and diagnosis. During this stage, doctors determine the reasons why pregnancy has not occurred naturally.
Based on the results of these preliminary examinations, the most suitable method of artificial insemination - with the highest chances of success - is selected.
In addition to medical causes, emotional and external factors often also affect a couple’s fertility. These may include exhaustion, stress, or an unhealthy lifestyle. In such cases, we’re also here for you - with financial support for nutritional counseling or special health courses, such as relaxation programs.
We’re happy to support you with additional, individually tailored services. Simply contact your personal SBK consultant. You can find their contact details here.
How to get artificial insemination:
Couples with an unfulfilled desire to have children may also be eligible for government funding in some federal states, which can reduce their out-of-pocket expenses. You can find more detailed information on this at the “Kinderwunsch” information portal of the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth.
