WIN addresses the current inconsistencies in the delivery of infertility care
created by the lack of treatment standards in this niche specialty. Without
appropriate care management, the result is often the uncontrolled use of
hormonal treatment, which are the leading causes of multiple gestations,
high-risk pregnancies and complications associated with low birth-weight
infants. WIN closely monitors, interacts with regulatory bodies and customizes
its programs to meet the requirements of state and federal mandates and
regulations regarding infertility treatments.

WIN’s Infertility/IVF Care Management Program focuses on the total infertility
dollar associated with this costly benefit compared to other local and/or
national programs that focus on pharmacy costs only. This global approach
provides substantial savings in infertility costs as well as other related
expenses such as high-risk obstetric and neonatal care as a result of multiple
births.

WIN’s care management program is staffed by experienced infertility clinicians
who provide intensive, hands-on management. Our Care Managers are seasoned
infertility nurses with years of experience in clinical practice. They
exclusively manage a small number of infertility cases and serve as the central
control point within our program. Responsibilities include prior-authorization;
initial triage of each infertility patient; referrals to appropriate
specialists; coordination of care with provider based on protocols; continuous
review for patient progress and treatment plan revisions; hormone therapy
monitoring through customized tracking system; collaboration with PCP’s,
OB/GYN’s and Reproductive Endocrinologists; patient education and moderation of
expectations; and analysis of key quality indicators of infertility programs.
WIN’s Infertility/IVF Medical Management program provides diagnosis-specific
case management of infertility treatment based on clinical protocols developed
by our Medical Advisory Board of prominent Reproductive Endocrinologists.
