Gost - Question RE SART

Post by littlebear »

Quick question - what does it mean when a clinic is not on the SART site? Does that mean the clinic does poorly and therefor does not report to SART?

Thanks

I don't know why some clinics choose not to report their results to SART. In some cases, it may be because they don't want to make poor results public.

The law says that clinics must report all IVF cycles to the CDC, and one handy way to do that is through SART, but some clinics don't even report to the CDC. I'm not sure what the penalties are.

There was at least one center that was kicked out of SART for poor performance.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
