Geographic Disparities in Access to Assisted Reproductive Technology Centers in China: Spatial-Statistical Study.

ABSTRACT: A study on infertility in China found that while 543 health care institutions are approved for assisted reproductive technology (ART), only 10.1% offer all ART services, with a significant skew toward the eastern regions, highlighting the accessibility challenges faced by rural and remote populations; this study recommends government measures including travel subsidies and education initiatives to improve ART access for economically disadvantaged individuals.
