Why does Alcea use a hybrid all-inclusive surrogacy program?
The Alcea Difference
Alcea serves carriers above and beyond most other agencies. Alcea offers a $3,000 signing bonus (as of July 2021), monthly wellness boxes, acupuncture and so much more. See all of the benefits of becoming an Alcea surrogate on our surrogacy compensation page.
What is a hybrid all-inclusive surrogacy program?
Surrogacy is already an emotional and time-intensive process. There is no value in confusing expense reports or waiting for reimbursements. In addition, we know intended parents expect Alcea to provide them with transparency in pricing and expectations. This approach provides a more accurate upfront understanding of their financial obligations while making things simple for our surrogates.
Our generous monthly miscellaneous fee of $350 considers all the extras we know you might need, with no expectation to prove you drove a certain amount of miles or prenatal vitamins.
How does reimbursement work?
Once your contract is signed, we use the SeedTrust escrow system, and every reimbursement is calendered and automatically disbursed. Surrogates and intended parents can log in and see what is on the horizon; no action is needed.
What about travel?
When traveling, all flights and hotels are paid upfront by Alcea, and you are issued a pre-funded cash card so you never have to worry about using your own credit cards or dipping into your own money and waiting for reimbursement.
And health insurance?
Your portion of your monthly healthy health insurance premium is covered, if applicable.
