The cost of ART is influenced by Medicare rebates and the overall cost of fertility treatments as set out by the specific fertility unit. There is no rebate for embryo and sperm storage. Costs of receiving an ART intervention vary greatly. Out\u2010of\u2010pocket costs ranged from nil to approximately $3000 per year for an <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic> fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle, from nil to $700 for embryo storage and from nil to $1500 for embryo transfer. All but two of the fertility clinics felt that the numbers of oncology patients accessing ART were low. The most common barrier to access identified by the fertility clinics interviewed was time restriction in a setting where there is a time pressure for a patient to commence anti\u2010cancer treatment.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:\u2003<\/jats:bold> Legislation is unlikely to be a barrier to the use of ART by cancer patients. The main reasons for limited access to ART may be cost or other factors including time pressure, the lack of a partner and age. Further research in this area is warranted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1743-7563.2011.01389.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,18]],"date-time":"2011-05-18T04:28:04Z","timestamp":1305692884000},"page":"123-128","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Access to assisted reproductive technology for cancer patients in Australia"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Ryan","family":"MCCONNELL","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcin","family":"STANKIEWICZ","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bogda","family":"KOCZWARA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2006.06.5888"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","first-page":"9","article-title":"Fertility effects of cancer treatment","volume":"32","author":"Marsden DE","year":"2003","journal-title":"Aust Fam Physician"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1586\/14737140.8.8.1323"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2009.23.0250"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2004.01.159"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10815-010-9434-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fertnstert.2009.02.067"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/humupd\/8.3.265"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.fertnstert.2010.05.017"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","unstructured":"Australian Infertility Support Group(n.d.)
