As a parent that so desperately wants a child to love, there are specific traits or characteristics that you desire in a donor. For this reason, Reproductive Assistance Inc. has searched and interviewed thousands of potential donors to create a database of quality donors.

All of our donors have been or are in the process of being MMPI tested and psychological screened. When possible, we try to meet and educate each donor before beginning the process. Once a recipient family has selected a donor, the physician group will begin the process of completing the physical screening of your donor. This physical screening process may take a few weeks depending on your physician group.

We only provide anonymous donors to families, and the recipient family and donor will not meet. We work with only the best physician groups in the world.

Please review the recipient process that will be completed when selecting a donor:

	Step 1 - Apply for a password and phone interview After a recipient family applies for a password, a representative from Reproductive Assistance Inc. will conduct a brief phone interview with the family. This interview will explain how RAI’s program works, gather some information on the recipient family, and review the legal and financial areas of selecting a donor. Step 2 - Selecting a Donor When the recipient family selects their donor, the family should call Reproductive Assistance Inc. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, cashiers check, or money orders are accepted for the agency fee. There is an additional fee for credit card processing. At this time, the attorney contract will be mailed or emailed to the recipient family, authorized, and returned back to Reproductive Assistance Inc. If your donor is deemed medically inappropriate, the agency fee will be applied toward the selection of another donor. Sometimes a family will decide to wait for a donor that is completing another cycle for a different family. Please note that if a family decides to wait on a donor, RAI can not control the timeframe of when a donor will be ready for their next cycle. We are a full service egg donor agency that does not have any hidden costs like smaller agencies you may find. We provide many different services that smaller agencies charge for including: an application fee, escrow management fee, travel coordination fee, legal contracts, a portion of the donor’s compensation, and international fee. Step 3 - Screening The donor will be scheduled for all her physical screening appointments through your physician group. The donor’s MMPI test results and psychological interview report will be sent to your physician group. If the donor has just been added to our database and has not completed the MMPI and psychological interview, we will schedule the donor for this testing before she goes to your physician group. All donors are screened according to FDA guidelines. If the physician determines that the donor is not a viable candidate, then RAI will allow the recipient family to select anther donor from the database. If your physician group requires the donor to have insurance, the recipient family may purchase an optional insurance policy thru AIG or New Life Agency. This Oocyte Donor/Recipient Policy is $400 per cycle with no deductible. Please inquire about the program when selecting a donor. All donors are compensated at least $3000 or more. Repeat or special donors may request higher compensation. Average donor compensation is $4,000 to $5,000. Two weeks prior to the procedure, RAI will invoice you for the donor’s compensation. Compensation for donors is placed in a trust account and is paid after completion of the cycle and procedure. For out of town donors, we can recommend and coordinate screening and monitoring appointments. Additional charges for screening and monitoring will be billed directly to the Recipient family for confidentiality purposes. If the donor is required to travel more than 50 miles by car, then the donor will receive $250 for each driving trip. If the donor is required to travel by air, then the donor will receive an extra $500 for each flying trip. Travel compensation will be invoiced to the recipient family when the first appointment is scheduled, and all travel expenses will be invoiced as scheduled. Travel compensation for the donor will be placed in trust till the travel is completed. All travel expenses are due before the procedure. Step 4 - The Egg Retrieval Procedure The physician group will coordinate the medication for both the donor and recipient. When the eggs are ready, the donor will be scheduled for the retrieval procedure. Once the eggs are removed, the eggs will be fertilized with sperm. If for any reason the family decides not to move forward, RAI will refund the family $500 after a release is authorized. If the donor does not complete the cycle, RAI will allow the recipient family to select another donor from the database at no additional charge.
