IntegraMed America, Inc. (NASDAQ: INMD), the leader in developing, marketing and managing specialty healthcare facilities in the fertility and vein care markets, announced it had entered into an agreement with Austin Fertility Institute to begin offering IntegraMed's Attain® IVF Programs to Austin Fertility Institute's patients.

Pioneered by IntegraMed, the Attain IVF Programs, including the Attain IVF Refund Program and Attain IVF Multi-Cycle Program, offer patients a course-of-treatment approach to improve the chances for success and to help manage the financial commitment associated with undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. For a discounted, fixed up-front cost, the Attain IVF Refund Program provides patients with a series of up to six IVF treatments while refunding 70% to 100% of their fees if their treatments do not result in having a baby. The Attain IVF Multi-Cycle Program provides a lower cost treatment regimen for a series of up to four IVF treatments.

Austin Fertility Institute is a new fertility practice with professionals of the highest caliber and is on the leading edge of developments in fertility technology and treatment options. Serving the greater Austin metro area from its offices at 2200 Park Bend Drive, Austin Fertility Institute provides patients with a full spectrum of services, including infertility testing, surrogacy services, in-vitro fertilization, intrauterine insemination (IUI), and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD).

Dr. Kenneth K. Moghadam, Austin Fertility Institute's medical director, commented, "I am very excited that Austin Fertility Institute is joining the Attain Fertility Center network. I am confident that both our center's staff, as well as our patients, will greatly benefit from this new association, including our ability to offer patients the Attain IVF course-of-treatment financing programs tailored specifically for the needs of fertility patients. The Attain IVF Programs will enable us to offer patients attractive options to improve their potential for a positive outcome."

"With a fast-growing population of over 1.7 million people, the Austin metropolitan area presents an ideal new market in which to expand the Attain Fertility Center network footprint. The Austin Fertility Institute is a highly respected fertility provider, and we are pleased to expand into this dynamic market together with such a great partner," said Pamela Schumann, President of the Consumer Services Division of IntegraMed.
