Bulk Billed IVF Clinic
Dr Lanziz Homar recently teamed up with First Step Fertility in the opening of Toowoomba’s first non means-tested, bulk-billed IVF clinic. Now you can have your IVF treatment bulk-billed, and right here in Toowoomba.
Dr Homar is one of the IVF doctors leading the Toowoomba service, and is excited that IVF will become a lot more affordable for families. It’s expected that the new service will save patients anything from $5,000–$7,000 in out-of-pocket expenses.
To meet the eligibility criteria for the program, women have to be under a certain age and BMI, must be diagnosed with fertility issues, and must have a valid Medicare card.
First Step Fertility is a world-class fertility clinic, offering affordable IVF to families across Australia and delivering excellent results. Fertility treatments include in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), intracytoplasmic sperm injections (ICSI) and frozen embryo transfer (FET).

Bulk billed IVF, also known as publicly funded IVF, is a form of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment that is covered or partially covered by a government health program, such as Australia's Medicare system. This means that patients undergoing IVF treatment do not have to pay the full cost of the procedure out of pocket, as the government program subsidises a portion or the entire cost of the treatment.
IVF is a complex and emotionally intense process, and the success rate can vary depending on several factors, including the age of the patient, the quality of the eggs and sperm, and the expertise of the fertility clinic. It's essential to consult with a reproductive specialist or fertility doctor to assess individual circumstances and discuss whether IVF is an appropriate option for achieving pregnancy.
