Fertility

NHS Funded Fertility Treatment varies enormously across the UK; current provision across England is determined by:

  1. Which CCG your GP practice is associated with (this information can be obtained directly from your GP surgery). Criteria are determined by your local CCG and this is subject to change
  2. NHS England for Armed forces funding only

(The hospital trust has no control or influence on any policy changes and no responsibility for any changes associated with these web site links below)

 Further information can be obtained from the following links:

There is an essential requirement for all funding to follow a defined treatment pathway and any associated forms must be completed by an NHS Fertility Specialist to apply for funding.
