Genetic Testing: Is it Cost Effective?


Listen Later

The world of fertility is filled with acronyms - ART, IVF, IUI, ICSI, PICSI, SET, FET, HCG, LH, PCOS, AMH, FSH, OMG. But there is one acronym in particular that gets questioned often, PGT-A. It stands for pre-implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy and it can make a real difference. Everyone who decides to go forward with IVF has to make a decision on whether or not to go forward with PGT-A. The fact is, many people just aren’t sure if it would be worth the extra cost. In this episode we hear from Dr. Shelby Neal who, along with the team at RMA of New Jersey, performed a study to answer one of the key questions most patients have when facing IVF, “When is it cost effective to use pre-implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy?” and “Why should we do PGT-A?” Today’s host is Claire O’Neill, Patient Care Advocate (PCA) at Progyny. Guests include: Dr. Shelby Neal from RMA of NJ For more information, visit Progyny's Podcast page: http://www.progyny.com/podcast and RMA of NJ: https://www.rmanj.com Have a question, comment, or want to share your story?
