Fast, Efficient Screening

Surrogacy can often feel like a ‘hurry up and wait’ process, but at PECNA we are committed to making at least one phase move faster—psychological screening.

Refer patients directly from our website, manage their patient info, and see where in the process of evaluation they are, using your agency’s exclusive patient portal.

With next-day telehealth appointments and rapid 48-hour reporting, our goal is to streamline the evaluation process to help advance gestational carriers and intended parents to the embryo transfer stage more quickly.
