At PFC, we strive to make the surrogacy process as streamlined as possible. Our simple, 7-step process is designed to ensure that you have all of the information you need for each stage of your journey.
-
Step1
Pre-Screen Application
Surrogates are required to submit a pre-screen application which will either pre-qualify or disqualify them as potential surrogates.
-
Step2
Surrogacy Application
Surrogates will fill out an initial surrogacy application consisting of approximately fifty questions about their background, pregnancy history, obstetrical/gynecological information, and spousal information.
-
Step3
Documentation Submitted
The surrogate will be required to submit documentation, including recent photos of herself and her home, insurance cards, and a valid driver’s license.
-
Step4
Psychological Evaluation & Background Check
We will conduct a psychological evaluation consisting of a PAI personality test to ensure that the surrogate is prepared to handle the pregnancy. In addition, the surrogate and her spouse/live-in partner (if applicable) will undergo a background check to ensure that they have no prior convictions that could negatively impact the surrogacy process.
-
Step5
Medical Approval
Surrogates will need to submit their medical history and pregnancy medical records for review by a reproductive endocrinologist
-
Step6
Matching Process
We will propose a match based on the criteria the surrogate and the intended parents provide. If both parties would like to continue working together, they will move on to the contract phase of the process.
-
Step7
Sign Contracts
A surrogacy contract will be drafted and signed by both parties to officially begin the surrogacy journey.
