FCNE Named Aetna Institute of Excellence™ for Second Consecutive Year

The Fertility Centers of New England is proud to announce its designation as an Aetna Institute of Excellence™ Infertility Clinic for Assisted Reproductive Technology services for the second consecutive year.

Aetna makes information about the quality and cost of health care services available to its members to help them make informed decisions about their health care needs. To be selected as an Aetna Institute of Excellence, fertility clinics must satisfy benchmarks for the following criteria:

• Number of procedures
• Success rates
• Cost-effective care
• How often patients return to the hospital
• Rates of complications

The Fertility Centers of New England has successfully met and surpassed all qualifying criteria for the 2014 calendar year. “We are honored to be recognized as an Aetna Institute of Excellence™ for the second year in a row,” stated Chief Operating Officer at Fertility Centers of New England Brian E. Miller, Ph.D. “This designation speaks to our commitment to providing our patients with the highest levels of care, affordable treatment options, and high success rates.”

In addition to being included in the Aetna Institute of Excellence™ network of providers, the Fertility Centers of New England is fully accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC). “There are few IVF centers in the United States achieving both Institute of Excellence™ status and accreditation by the AAAHC,” notes Miller. “Our entire team is very proud to be a preferred IVF provider for Aetna and we are confident that patients will receive the highest quality care at all of our locations.”
