What the CDC NASS Data Shows for Geisinger Medical Center Fertility Program

Geisinger Medical Center Fertility Program reported cycle outcomes to the CDC National ART Surveillance System for the 2022 reporting year, with 3 years of cumulative reporting history. The clinic performed 442 total ART cycles, split between 8 fresh and 434 frozen embryo transfer cycles. The overall success rate — live births per cycle started — was 34.0%. That is 4.0 percentage points below the Pennsylvania state average of 38.0%, which may reflect a more complex patient case mix rather than quality of care.

Age remains the dominant variable in IVF outcomes. At Geisinger Medical Center Fertility Program, patients under 35 saw a 44.0% success rate, compared with 36.1% for ages 35–37 and 12.7% for ages 38–40. Single embryo transfer (SET) was used in 42.2% of cycles, a metric ASRM associates with lower multi-pregnancy rates.

Service availability also affects which clinics fit which patients. Geisinger Medical Center Fertility Program does report donor egg services and does offer gestational carrier (surrogate) cycles. These services matter for patients with diminished ovarian reserve, same-sex couples, or medical conditions that preclude carrying a pregnancy. Every figure above is a public federal disclosure, not editorial commentary — PlainFertility is not affiliated with Geisinger Medical Center Fertility Program or the CDC, and these statistics are not a substitute for an evaluation by a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist who can assess your individual diagnosis, history, and treatment options.

Read these figures as a starting point, not a verdict. The CDC reports live births per intended egg retrieval, so the percentages already account for cycles that never reached embryo transfer — a more conservative measure than the per-transfer pregnancy rates clinics sometimes advertise. Group results describe what happened for past patients; they cannot predict an individual outcome, which depends on diagnosis, ovarian reserve, sperm quality, embryo genetics, and the protocol a physician recommends. A single reporting year can swing for lower-volume clinics, so cumulative multi-year results and a candid consultation carry more weight than any one published number.
