Requirements for Embryo Donation
through various Embryo Donation\Adoption agencies when your embryos are in storage at ReproTech, Ltd.
It is important for you to contact ReproTech, Ltd. (RTL) first prior
to making any arrangements to donate your embryos.
A current RTL embryo storage client, who identifies a donor embryo
recipient through another agency, must complete RTL’s embryo donor protocol, as stated in RTL’s
Embryo Cryostorage Agreement, prior to shipment of the embryos to
use by the intended recipient.
Embryo donors are required to complete a three-generation medical/genetic history,
have their physician complete a reproductive donor physical
examination, sign a consent to donate, complete a 30-60 minute phone consultation with RTLs consulting
clinical social worker, and complete additional blood testing.
The
donor(s) must pre-pay RTL for all fees associated with completing
donor embryo eligibility determination protocol. If the embryo donors are approved
by RTL and the recipients complete the RTL protocol and take
ownership of the donor embryos, these fees may be refunded to the
donor(s). Additional fees may be assessed by RTL if the
donation process is not completed within 30
days of the end of your current prepaid storage period. Those
fees are assessed at the rate of $106 per quarter, which is the
minimum storage period offered by RTL.
Contact RTL if you have any questions or would
like to start the process of donation.
