Stop CCG's limiting IVF on the NHS against NICE guidelines
NICE guidelines state that couples struggling to conceive should have access to three rounds of IVF on the NHS however the local CCG's are overruling this and most couples are lucky to get one round if anything at all. The NHS is meant to be a national organisation so it shouldn't differ from one area to another too. This has to change so people are able to have a chance to start a family.
Why is this important?
People who are desperate to start a family are being given the choice of either going without or having to spend their life savings (or going into serious debt) to make their dreams come true. When unfit parents are allowed to produce child after child supported by the government, people who would make great parents aren't even given a chance.
