CARROT FERTILITY - Meet A Vendor

Shortlister hosted Chelsea Steinmeyer, AVP, Consultant Relations at Carrot Fertility, to share how Carrot provides lifelong fertility care for all and supports all paths to parenthood.

ABOUT CARROT FERTILITY

Carrot is the only global end-to-end clinical solution for lifelong fertility care, supporting all paths to parenthood. Unlike other solutions, Carrot is the only benefits vendor that supports lifelong fertility and family-forming journeys, from exploration through hormonal aging (menopause and low T).

Carrot believes in global fertility for all, which is why their offering covers:

Carrot’s personalized inclusive approach, global expertise, and compliance support is why employers choose us and stay with us (95% customer retention rate). Carrot offerings are built to support groups of all sizes, industries, and self-funded OR fully insured group types.

FERTILITY IMPACTS NEARLY EVERYONE

Nearly everyone in your client’s organization needs support and traditional health benefits often don’t meet your clients’ diverse needs.

1 in 8 opposite sex couples face infertility, which is more than diabetes.
63% of LGBTQ+ say they intend to pursue parenthood, whether through fertility treatments or adoption.
Men make up 40% of Carrot’s member base. Fertility is not a female issue, it’s a human issue, and we hear men are thrilled that there is a comprehensive solution to support them and their partners.
66% of Carrot members choose a less invasive and expensive first line intervention to become pregnant after guidance from Carrot’s medical team.
Gestational carrier (often referred to as surrogacy)
In the U.S, more than 30% of pregnancies are shepherded into potentially unnecessary C-sections, an invasive procedure with additional recovery time.
And, the most senior leaders are often silently managing menopause or low testosterone and it’s hurting their productivity at a time when you can least afford it.

Carrot is the only fertility care provider with the comprehensive approach required to serve your entire client’s organization.

THE CARROT DIFFERENCE

These key areas differentiate Carrot:

Personalization - Carrot is a truly inclusive benefit that is personalized to every member. Carrot helps employees beyond medical care, like IVF, and expands to adoption, surrogacy, donor material and fertility preservation. The Carrot benefit can include a financial stipend that’s easy to use and makes the message to employees clear - all members now have access to the same benefit regardless of income.
Clinical guidance - No matter the type of fertility journey, Carrot provides clinical guidance and support to drive the best outcomes for members, and for employers alike. Carrot has clinical protocols to improve health outcomes and provide a wealth of resources, like unlimited expert chats, so members feel empowered throughout their journey.
Global solution - 9 of 10 employers choose Carrot’s global solution. Carrot offers a robust understanding of the local footprint for each country that they support and their solution is available in over 120+ countries. All eligible clinics and agencies are vetted to ensure members are receiving the highest standards of care, no matter what country they are in.
Aligned goals - Carrot’s goals are aligned with their clients and members. Specifically, their revenue is not tied to any one type of care. Instead, revenue is transparent and based on engagement, which means clients have more control over their budget and have lower costs both through Carrot and on the health plan. Carrot is incentivized to do what’s best for members — focusing first on prevention and directing members to other forms of care where needed.

INCLUSIVE CARE SUPPORTING ALL FERTILITY HEALTH JOURNEYS

Culturally sensitive, inclusive care that supports all fertility health journeys is a top priority for Carrot. Diversity, equity, and inclusion have never been more important in the workplace and a key part of showcasing a commitment to that is through an inclusive benefits package with financial and geographical access to care. Traditional health benefits aren’t typically set up to address the diverse needs of groups — especially when it comes to fertility and family. Carrot works one-on-one with members of color to help them find an eligible provider who shares their background. Carrot members can indicate that they would like this support within the initial onboarding questionnaire. As a result, members feel safer and more empowered in their treatment.
