Birla Fertility & IVF, one of India’s largest IVF networks, has partnered with Health Care Hospital in Pasighat to expand access to advanced fertility care in Arunachal Pradesh, reducing the need for patients to travel to metro cities and distant treatment centres. Under the collaboration, couples from Pasighat and neighbouring districts will be able to access key fertility services, including consultations, scans, ovulation monitoring and intrauterine insemination (IUI) procedures locally at Health Care Hospital. The services will be provided under the clinical guidance and treatment protocols of Birla Fertility & IVF’s Guwahati centre, ensuring continuity of care while easing financial and logistical burdens on patients.
To support the initiative, Birla Fertility & IVF also organised “Fertility Unscripted”, a Continuing Medical Education (CME) programme in Pasighat. The event brought together gynaecologists, fertility specialists and healthcare professionals from across Arunachal Pradesh and the Northeast to discuss emerging fertility treatments, best practices and multidisciplinary approaches to reproductive healthcare. Dr. Kalpana Jain, Senior Consultant and Centre Head of Birla Fertility & IVF, Guwahati, said the partnership aims to ensure that access to advanced fertility care is not limited by geography. Health Care Hospital CMD Dr. K Megu said the collaboration would allow patients to receive essential fertility services closer to home.
In Guwahati, the partnership highlights the growing role of the city as a regional healthcare hub for the Northeast. With specialised medical institutions increasingly extending services to neighbouring states through collaborative models, Guwahati-based healthcare providers are expanding their reach while improving access to advanced treatment options across underserved regions. The CME featured expert sessions, including Dr. Jain’s presentation on “10 Pearls for Successful IUI”, panel discussions on recurrent pregnancy loss, and talks on decentralising fertility care and medical ethics. The programme concluded with an interactive discussion on clinical challenges and best practices in fertility treatment.
