Systems for Fertility Clinics
The business model for fertility practices runs through diagnostic workups, IVF cycles, and cryopreservation services. Leaks often occur when emotional inquiries are not met with immediate responses or when complex treatment schedules result in patient drop-off between diagnostic testing and cycle initiation.
Healthcare
How the business actually works
Inquiry
Prospective patients reach out via the web or phone seeking information on egg freezing or IVF.
Consultation
The initial meeting with a reproductive endocrinologist to discuss history and goals.
Workup
Diagnostic testing including bloodwork, ultrasounds, and semen analysis is scheduled and tracked.
Financial Clearance
Insurance verification and cycle payment plans are finalized before medications are ordered.
Stimulation
Active monitoring of the cycle with frequent clinic visits and medication adjustments.
Procedure
Egg retrieval, fertilization, and embryo transfer stages managed by the clinical team.
Results
Pregnancy testing and early obstetric monitoring before discharge to an OBGYN.
Where it leaks
Patients seeking fertility care are often in a state of urgency and will contact multiple clinics. If the first inquiry is not answered within minutes, they often move to the next provider on their list.
The gap between the initial consult and starting a cycle is a high-risk period for patient attrition. Lack of proactive follow-up during diagnostic testing leads to abandoned treatment plans.
Nursing staff spend hours on the phone confirming medication start dates and ultrasound appointments. Manual scheduling of these time-sensitive visits creates bottlenecks and increases the risk of clinical errors.
The volume of consents required for genetic testing and cryopreservation can be overwhelming. Missing signatures delay cycles and frustrate patients who are already under significant emotional stress.
Financial counselors, embryologists, and nurses often store patient notes in different places. This lack of a central communication thread results in patients receiving conflicting information about their status.
What LATTICE can build
Automated SMS and email triggers respond to new web leads instantly to schedule the initial consultation before they call a competitor.
Automated reminders ensure all legal and clinical consents are signed digitally before the cycle start date.
Patients receive automated SMS instructions for medication triggers and morning monitoring appointments to ensure protocol compliance.
A secure way for patients to receive cost estimates and submit payments for cycles without repeated phone calls to the billing office.
Reach out to patients who completed a consult months ago but never initiated a cycle or those with stored embryos who need to discuss next steps.
Handles after-hours inquiries about clinic hours or basic process questions, ensuring no prospective patient is ignored over the weekend.
Example systems
Tell us what's slowing the business down. LATTICE can build around the way your business operates.
By automating the repetitive parts of patient communication, such as scheduling reminders and document collection, your nurses can focus on clinical care and patient education. This reduces burnout and ensures no patient falls through the cracks during a complex cycle.
Yes, workflows can be tailored to different treatment paths, such as IUI, IVF, or egg freezing. Each path triggers unique instructions and follow-up sequences relevant to that specific clinical journey.
Proactive communication makes patients feel supported during a difficult time. Automated follow-ups during the quiet periods of a workup show the patient that your clinic is attentive, which significantly increases the likelihood they proceed with treatment.
We prioritize secure communication channels and data handling to ensure that patient privacy is maintained throughout every automated touchpoint. All workflows are built with the sensitivity of reproductive health in mind.
The system can automate updates to patients on a waitlist, providing them with educational content and periodic check-ins. This keeps them engaged with your clinic so they are ready to start as soon as an opening occurs.
