Problem
Many individuals face significant geographic barriers to accessing fertility services, often needing to travel long distances to reach specialized care. This limited access results in delayed treatment and lower rates of fertility care initiation.
Solution
Branch Care offers a platform that expands access to fertility care by enabling local clinicians, such as OB/GYNs, to provide services under the remote supervision of reproductive endocrinologists. The platform provides clinical decision support tools, standardized workflows, and care coordination, allowing local clinicians to deliver high-quality fertility care within their existing practices. This model reduces the need for patients to travel to distant specialists, increases treatment initiation rates, and allows fertility specialists to focus on more complex cases. Branch Care also provides patients with on-demand support from fertility care navigators, who assist with understanding coverage, treatment expectations, and resource connections.
Target Audience
