*These values are our best estimate of the compensation you will receive during your surrogacy journey. We do not guarantee that these numbers are definite since prices are subject to change and might not be within our control, or there may be additional terms, obligations, or requirements met to receive the above fees. Further details on these fees, terms, requirements, and any other obligations may be outlined in your signed Gestational Carrier's Compensation Package and the direct agreement with your Intended Parent(s). Any deviations from the outlined fees must be disclosed to The Stork's Nest.
**Gestational surrogate might already have insurance, but it is possible she does not have any maternity coverage. Intended parents will be required to purchase a supplemental insurance policy that is approved by The Stork's Nest. In the event that your insurance does not cover the pregnancy, the compensation will reduce by $5,000 to offset the cost to the intended parents.
***Gestational Surrogate will not be required to pay for any medical costs or procedures associated with the gestational surrogacy arrangement, other than any necessary fees incurred for appointments or procedures necessary to meet our initial application requirements, such as obtaining an updated Pap Smear or receiving a signed OB clearance form. Intended Parents will be responsible for all medical costs.
