U.S. Fertility Clinic Services and Profiles for 2020

2020 data from the National ART Surveillance System provides an overview of clinic services, contact information, and summary statistics for fertility clinics across the United States. The dataset includes four linked components covering services, patient characteristics, success rates, and annual summaries, all connectable by a unique ClinicID. It is published by data.cdc.gov and was last updated in August 2023.

Use Cases

• Analyze geographic distribution of clinic services using LocationDesc, Zipcode, and Geolocation fields.
• Correlate clinic-level summary statistics from Data_Value with clinic characteristics like FacilityName and Clinic Status.
• Link clinic contact details (Phone, Address, City) with service profiles via the ClinicID key for network analysis.

Strengths

• Data is part of a national surveillance system linking four related datasets via ClinicID.
• Includes geospatial coordinates (Geolocation) for mapping clinic locations.

Limitations

• Dataset is limited to a single year (2020), providing only a cross-sectional view.
• Specific sample size (row count) and data completeness metrics are unavailable.
