Progyny vs Aleph Alpha

About

Progyny is a publicly traded fertility benefits management company founded in 2008 that has become the leading provider of employer-sponsored fertility benefits in the United States. The company manages fertility coverage for self-insured employers, providing access to a national network of top-tier fertility clinics, a proprietary Smart Cycle benefits design that bundles all medically necessary components of a treatment cycle, and dedicated patient care advocates who guide employees through fertility treatment. Progyny went public on Nasdaq in 2019 under the ticker PGNY and serves over 430 employers covering over 6 million lives including many Fortune 500 companies. The company has published clinical outcomes data demonstrating higher live birth rates, lower multiple birth rates, and lower NICU costs compared to traditional indemnity fertility coverage, translating into healthcare cost savings that offset the benefit cost for employers. Progyny's Smart Cycle design bundles medications, lab tests, and procedures into a single benefit unit that eliminates the piecemeal authorization challenges of traditional insurance coverage. The company competes with Carrot Fertility and Kindbody in the employer fertility benefits market.
