The process undertaken in as follows:
- Donor screening at Tygerberg
- If donor is new, Tygerberg will request that donor has a blood test. This test costs R900. It will be added to the amount recovered by baby2mom to give to the donor to pay for this test.
- Donor reports day 1 every month.
- If Tygerberg has capacity, the treatment will proceed.
- Tygerberg will then issue a script to the donor. This is obtained from Dischem Canal Walk. Recipients will please need to pay for this medication on the same day to the pharmacy so that the sciprt can be prepared. The donor will then collect the medication when it is ready.
- At this juncture, baby2mom will please request the donor donation of R8 000. This is given to the donor on the day of egg retrieval after the eggs have been retrieved. Whilst the donor donation is ordinarily paid via the clinic, Tygerberg have requested that baby2mom undertake this service. SASREG have consented to this. This donor donation payment is required no later than when treatment is started so that baby2mom has the donor donation ready to give to the donor.
Notes please:
- Tygerberg are not able to give a plan as to when the donation can happen upfront. This is only given when they have capacity.
- baby2mom cannot influence the timing. It is entirely dependent on the capacity of the Tygerberg clinic.
- Whilst donors have committed to the process, if the timing is long, it may be that donors are no longer available and recipients have to select a new donor.
