Blockchain-based genetic data tracking platform Eggschain announced a partnership with Boston IVF, one of the most renowned fertility networks in the United States. The partnership will leverage Eggschain’s blockchain tech on cryogenically preserved sperm for its usage in IVF and other fertility and non-fertility treatments including long-term storage of other genetic data.
<h2><strong>Blockchain for Healthcare
</strong></h2>
Eggschain is the first patented supply chain system that combines blockchain and genetics to bring medical-grade data for those undergoing IVF treatment in a secured, transparent and trackable format. The company <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220104005191/en/Eggschain-Announces-Partnership-with-Boston-IVF" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">announced</a> Tuesday that it would be partnering with the Boston IVF chain of 30 fertility clinics in the United States.

Founded in 1986, Boston IVF is one of the largest fertility networks in the United States, with more than 100,000 babies delivered. Being the country’s first private practice IVF centers, the Boston IVF network has grown to now include over 30 centers.

Commenting on the development, David L. Stern, CEO of Boston IVF, said:
<blockquote><em>“Boston IVF has always prided itself on being first in adopting effective new technologies to improve patient outcomes, and Eggschain represents another important leap forward. Our promise to our patients is to deliver the highest levels of treatment and care. Eggschain’s patented, proprietary blockchain technology enables us to further elevate their experience with an unparalleled level of transparency and security.”</em></blockquote>
Being the first blockchain-powered inventory management healthcare platform, Eggschain tracks biospecimens, including sperm, eggs, embryos, genome, stem cells, tissues and organs, and other genetic material. The partnership will be particularly beneficial to Eggschain customers who also become Boston IVF patients as the fertility clinic offers a 10 percent lifetime discount on sperm storage to the customers of Eggschain.
