The pandemic has exacerbated the demand for fertility benefits

Published 3 Min Read

The COVID-19 pandemic may have put the working world on pause for over a year, but it didn’t slow down employees’ efforts to build a family.

But the path to parenthood isn’t always easy, and many would-be parents require additional support through the use of fertility benefits in order to make this goal a reality. In spite of fertility clinics closing their doors abruptly to patients due to COVID-19, a recent survey from Carrot Fertility and RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association, found that the pandemic actually ramped up employee’s family building plans and resulted in fertility care emerging as a core part of people’s healthcare priorities.
