This National Infertility Awareness Week, we at Branch Care are more committed than ever to closing the gaps in access to fertility care. Infertility affects 1 in 5 Americans. And, care is far too difficult to access in the United States. An estimated 1 in 7 individuals must travel 60+ miles to access fertility care. With average treatment costs running between $15,000 - $30,000 per IVF cycle and limited insurance coverage, care is financially inaccessible to the majority of Americans as well. Branch is building a “hub and spoke” care model that empowers Reproductive Endocrinologists to increase access to fertility care in partnership with local OB/GYNs. We’re humbled to play our part in expanding access to care with our growing network of aligned providers. This week, we're honoring the strength and resilience of those navigating this path. To everyone in our community and beyond facing these challenges – we see you, we support you, and we're here for you. Let’s continue to build a world where access is no longer a barrier to care. Together, we can make a difference.
