It's something patients have been complaining about for years - the hidden extra charges they often face when presented with a bill for their fertility treatment. Now, the HFEA is taking action on the issue, and has told clinics that they will be expected to present patients with a clear plan of how much their treatment is going to cost.
When so many people have to save or borrow to pay for treatment, an unexpectedly large bill can cause real problems and costed treatment plans at the start should make a real difference. There's a press release on this with more details on the HFEA website at www.hfea.gov.uk
