At Golden Surrogacy we facilitate some of the most comprehensive family building programs in the industry! Founded by former Intended Parents, we understand how crucial it is to have the best possible team advocating on your behalf, looking out for your best interests as a Surrogate, and providing world-class journey support and case management.
At Golden we believe that every Surrogate in our program has the right to receive a fair base compensation regardless of their state of residency, insurance coverage, or employment status. Below is what we recommend in keeping with industry standards and best practices. However, all Golden Surrogates may set their own compensation amounts.
Our Golden Surrogates receive dedicated access to support and guidance! We tailor our communication methods to serve you best; whether it’s by phone, email, or text, your Care Team is always available.
Golden will provide Surrogates with a referral based on who we feel is the best Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) attorney licensed in their delivery state. However, Surrogates in our program are never forced to use a recommended attorney and may select their own.
Your dedicated Care Team navigates every intricate detail carefully to align with the flow of your unique timeline. Leave the hard work to us. Sit back and enjoy your journey as a Golden Surrogate!
3rd Party Management
Golden acts as the ultimate project manager actively engaging with each third-party professional working on your surrogacy journey. This includes checking in on nurse coordinators at IVF clinics, emailing attorneys to follow-up on your legal agreement, and so much more. Every aspect is examined and promptly tracked for a successful and timely outcome.
Surrogate Travel
Your flights and hotel accommodations for screening and embryo transfers are researched and booked by a member of your Care Team. All related costs, as well as any cash advance for lost-wages, and/or childcare expenses are paid for by Golden and billed out to your Intended Parent(s) for payment. Most agencies do not have the resources to offer this service and Surrogates are often times responsible for inuring these costs on their own initially.
Local Monitoring
Most Surrogates require access to a local medical facility to have blood-work drawn and ultrasounds performed on behalf of your IVF clinic so they have the ability to monitor your hormone levels and uterine lining during the medication protocol. This is referred to as “monitoring.” This monitoring must be conducted by a facility local to your home that can produce same-day testing results back to the IVF clinic. Golden does all the research to find a suitable location. Going above and beyond, Golden also sets-up the billing with a corporate credit card to ensure prompt payment
Insurance
Every Surrogate’s insurance policy is closely examined through a group of third-party reproduction insurance professionals. A Care Team member will collect your insurance card and Explanation of Coverage (EOC) and schedule, as well as oversee the review process. Should you need a supplemental insurance policy your Care Team will facilitate that process between you and the Intended Parent(s). Also, Golden coordinates the life-insurance purchase and any other insurance product that must be procured for your journey.
Legal Review
Members of your Care Team will carefully examine the Surrogate Agreement, aka “contract” when you receive the first draft from your attorney. The contractual language and financial information is compared against our best-practice checklist to ensure consistency and accuracy of the information you are agreeing to. A detailed list of notes is then compiled and sent to you for consideration.
Hospital Introduction
Golden reaches out to your delivery hospital to verify they are in receipt of the parentage paperwork and are made aware of the impending surrogacy delivery. At this time a hospital tour and conference call are scheduled between all parties and key members of the hospital staff. This important step helps to ensure a smooth process on the day of delivery.
Escrow Coordination
Every reimbursement request that you submit is also emailed to your Care Team for prior authorization to verify accuracy, appointment dates, and amounts. In addition, the monthly statement is forward to Golden for further review. Your Care Team is in direct contact with your escrow manager daily to maintain the proper fiduciary handling of your compensation, and to ensure prompt payments to you in accordance with the legal agreement.
Medical Billing
Bills that are submitted to escrow for payment are carefully examined by your Care Team to ensure proper insurance coverage was applied first, prior to payment being authorized. Should discrepancies be found, a member of your Care Team will coordinates with you and the medical providers to resubmit the claims for corrected processing.
