A new joint venture between First IVF and Sinead O'Sullivan's Birch is offering 50% of the cost of fertility treatment back to patients if they do not become pregnant.

The long-awaited and long-promised government funding for IVF will be available from September 2023. Providers have begun to secure approval from the HSE.

Thérapie Medical Group has been expanding aggressively across Ireland and the UK. It has now moved into fertility care, and is intent on growing the market by targeting women in their twenties for testing and egg freezing. CEO Philip McGlade talks price, strategy and expansion.
