Third-party IVF is getting bigger, but are clinics actually getting better at it?

Or are some efforts to streamline the process creating new risks for patients?

Dr. Allison Bloom of Main Line Fertility and Dr. Daniel Shapiro of Reproductive Biology Associates (RBA) discuss what separates a clinic that offers third-party reproduction from one that truly excels at it.

We dive into:

• The push to streamline third-party IVF (and where corners may be getting cut)

• The technology stack donor & surrogacy programs need

• The gaps in today’s EMRs and what needs to change

• Emerging trends around known donors

• New thinking on anonymous vs. de-identified donation

• One thing each physician believes clinics should start (or stop) doing to become a third-party IVF powerhouse

As third-party reproduction becomes more common, the operational, ethical, and technological challenges become harder to ignore.
