About Inside Reproductive Health Podcast
Inside Reproductive Health looks at fertility care from the inside of the industry. It is less about personal fertility journeys and more about the systems that decide what care costs, how clinics operate, and which technologies move into practice. Recent episodes spend serious time on genetics. Pre-implantation genetic testing, carrier screening, PGT-G, PGT-P, and genetic counseling all appear as practical clinic problems, not abstract science topics. The show asks who should counsel patients, where outside services fit, and how smaller clinics should think about staffing and billable work. It also follows executive strategy. A conversation with Tracy Belson examines CCRM’s patient experience, treatment conversion, finance approach, technology implementation, and position in a possible hub-and-spoke era. The market lens is constant. Category deep dives track pharmaceuticals, pharmacy, supplements, patient finance, third-party IVF, diagnostics, and professional services. Pricing transparency gets treated as a pressure point from patients, payors, and IVF centers at the same time. The show is comfortable with operational detail. It talks about activity-based costing, workflow bottlenecks, data blind spots, and the difference between volume problems and flow problems. It is also willing to test the edges of innovation. Lab automation, AI, embryo testing, and published study results are discussed with attention to what has been proven and what remains speculative. The conversations can turn philosophical, especially when physician burnout, moral injury, meaning, and happiness in reproductive endocrinology come up. The register is candid, commercially aware, and sometimes sharp. It suits listeners who already know the fertility field or need to understand how clinics, labs, vendors, and investors are reshaping it.
Made for: Best for fertility clinic leaders, REIs, embryology and genetics teams, vendors, investors, consultants, and healthcare operators tracking reproductive medicine. It also suits policy-minded listeners who want the business and workflow context behind IVF access.
What sets it apart: The show treats fertility medicine as a working industry with incentives, constraints, staffing choices, and evidence gaps. It pairs technical topics like PGT and lab automation with concrete questions about billing, patient experience, market positioning, and clinic workflow.

As heard by us
Based on 5 episodes we listened to · September 2026
It makes the operational forces behind fertility care clear without flattening pricing, genetics, staffing, or clinic ownership into easy answers.
Inside Reproductive Health follows fertility care into the decisions that shape clinics: IVF pricing, genetic testing, staffing, finance, ownership, consolidation, and physician burnout.
Why you'd press play
An IVF price tag sprouts footnotes; this is where you learn to read them.
Press play if you want
- to hear why an IVF quote needs more than a dollar figure, down to medication and testing
- to think through where genetic counselors fit when clinic staff are already stretched
