To evaluate the compliance of donor and surrogacy agencies to American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) guidelines and assess regional differences in agency, donor, and surrogacy fees in the United States.
A retrospective study was performed of websites from agencies that have signed an agreement with the Society for Reproductive Technology (SART) to abide by ASRM guidelines in governing egg donor prices and surrogacy compensation.
A total of 66 agencies are listed on the website, divided into 8 national regions; 24.5% of egg donor agencies deviated from ASRM guidelines. There was no significant difference in the agency fees among the different regions of United States, but the agency fees for egg donation trend higher in the west.
A substantial number of egg donor agencies in the United States are not abiding by the ASRM guidelines. Oversight may be needed to correct improper marketing practices for egg donor recruitment.
评估捐赠机构和代孕机构对美国生殖医学学会(ASRM)指南的遵守情况,并评估美国各地区机构、捐赠者及代孕费用的差异。
对已与生殖技术协会(SART)签署协议以遵守ASRM关于卵子捐赠价格和代孕补偿管理指南的机构网站进行回顾性研究。
网站上共列出66家机构,分为8个全国性区域;24.5%的卵子捐赠机构偏离了ASRM指南。美国不同地区的机构费用无显著差异,但西部卵子捐赠的机构费用有更高的趋势。
美国大量卵子捐赠机构未遵守ASRM指南。可能需要进行监督以纠正卵子捐赠招募中的不当营销行为。
