About one in six people globally battle infertility, according to the World Health Organization. That’s why Ovia Health by Labcorp is launching a new fertility and family-building benefit for employers and health plans, the company announced last week.

据世界卫生组织称，全球约有六分之一的人与不孕症作斗争。这就是为什么Labcorp的Ovia Health正在为雇主和健康计划推出新的生育和家庭建设福利，该公司上周宣布。

Ovia Health — which was acquired by laboratory services company Labcorp in 2021 — is a digital family health benefits company that works with payers and employers. The Boston-based company’s services range from menstrual tracking to family-building support to menopause support. Through the Ovia Health app, users can access on-demand health coaching, a personalized care plan and one-on-one support from family health experts.

Ovia Health-于2021年被实验室服务公司Labcorp收购-是一家与付款人和雇主合作的数字家庭健康福利公司。总部位于波士顿的公司的服务范围从月经追踪到家庭建筑支持再到更年期支持。通过Ovia Health应用程序，用户可以访问按需健康辅导，个性化护理计划和家庭健康专家的一对一支持。

The new fertility and family building benefit, which will become available in January, helps employers and health plans provide a customizable offering to their employees and members. This includes the Ovia Wallet, which is a financial tool that allows employers to provide funds for eligible services, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), egg freezing, adoption and surrogacy.

新的生育和家庭建设福利将于1月上市，帮助雇主和健康计划为员工和成员提供可定制的服务。这包括Ovia钱包，这是一种金融工具，允许雇主为符合条件的服务提供资金，如体外受精（IVF），卵子冷冻，收养和代孕。

Employees will have access to several different payment options, including a digital wallet, a debit card and reimbursement options. Ovia Health partnered with financial technology company First Dollar to provide the Ovia Wallet..

员工可以访问几种不同的支付方式，包括数字钱包，卡和报销方式。Ovia Health与金融技术公司合作一美元提供Ovia钱包。。

In addition to the financial support, Ovia Health’s new benefit offers care navigation services to help employees and members find fertility clinics, providers, surrogacy agencies and adoption agencies. They also have access to one-on-one concierge support from Ovia’s care team for their family-building needs..

除了财务支持外，Ovia Health的新福利还提供护理导航服务，帮助员工和成员找到生育诊所，提供者，代理机构和收养机构。他们还可以从Ovia的护理团队获得一对一的协调支持，以满足他们的家庭建设需求。。

“Ovia is there with our members throughout their healthcare and reproductive journeys to help them begin with a healthy start before conception,” said Jenny Carrillo, Ph.D., president of Ovia Health, in an email. “We help them conceive without assisted reproductive technology (ART), if desired and if possible, and if they need ART, we will direct them to a network of providers that follow Society of Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) standards.” ART is the use of technology to achieve pregnancy.

Ovia Health总裁Jenny Carrillo博士在一封电子邮件中说：“Ovia在我们的医疗保健和生殖旅程中与我们的成员在一起，帮助他们在受孕前开始健康的开始。”。“如果需要，如果可能的话，我们帮助他们在没有辅助生殖技术（ART）的情况下怀孕，如果他们需要ART，我们将引导他们进入遵循辅助生殖技术协会（SART）标准的提供者网络。”ART是利用技术来实现怀孕。

IVF is one example of ART..

体外受精是艺术的一个例子。。

The new offering comes at a time when people are starting families later in their lives. In addition, 63% of LGBTQ+ Millennials are thinking about expanding their families by becoming first-time parents or having more children, and many plan to use ART, foster care or adoption to become parents.

新产品出现在人们晚年开始家庭的时候。此外，63%的LGBTQ+千禧一代正在考虑通过成为第一次父母或生育更多的孩子来扩大家庭，许多人计划使用艺术，寄养或收养成为父母。

“Many individuals and families pursuing fertility, adoption and/or surrogacy may feel isolated and unsupported to understand these complex processes, while many are excluded from these processes because of existing health inequities that hinder equitable access to care,” Carrillo said. “Ovia’s goal is to deliver equitable, more comprehensive support for all family building journeys — from preconception health through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.”.

卡里洛说：“许多追求生育，收养和/或代孕的个人和家庭可能会感到孤立和不受支持，无法理解这些复杂的过程，而许多人由于现有的卫生不公平而妨碍公平获得护理，因此被排除在这些过程之外。”。“奥维亚的目标是为所有家庭建设旅程提供公平，更全面的支持-从孕前健康到怀孕，产后等。”。

Several other companies are in the fertility and family planning space as well, including Progyny, Kindbody and Carrot Fertility.

其他几家公司也在生育和计划生育领域，包括后代，亲属和胡萝卜生育。
