CNY Fertility Founder & CEO Dr. Robert Kiltz Applauds President Trump's Directive to Protect IVF Access and Aggressively Reduce Out-of-Pocket and Health Plan Costs for Fertility Treatment
SYRACUSE, NEW YORK / / February 19, 2025 / Dr. Robert Kiltz, Founder and CEO of CNY Fertility, welcomes President Donald J. Trump's recent Executive Order aimed at expanding access to in vitro fertilization (IVF) and reducing out-of-pocket costs for fertility treatment. As a national leader in affordable IVF, CNY Fertility has long been committed to making parenthood possible for individuals and families, regardless of financial barriers.
"Access to fertility care should not be a privilege-it should be a right," said Dr. Kiltz. "At CNY Fertility, we've made it our mission to ensure that the dream of parenthood is within reach for all, no matter their income or challenges. President Trump's Executive Order is a critical step forward in breaking down barriers that prevent so many from accessing the care they need."
For nearly three decades, CNY Fertility has set the standard for affordable, high-quality fertility care. With some of the lowest IVF costs in the nation, along with financing options and innovative treatment protocols, CNY Fertility has helped thousands of families overcome financial obstacles on their path to parenthood.
The Executive Order directs federal agencies to prioritize policies that reduce fertility treatment costs, increase insurance coverage, and expand access to fertility services-initiatives that closely align with CNY Fertility's core mission. By removing financial and regulatory burdens, this order has the potential to help millions of hopeful parents achieve their dreams. The national average cost of IVF ranges from $12,000-$25,000 per cycle, but CNY Fertility patients typically pay about a third of this, even with the additional cost of fertility medications, while receiving high quality care.
"We will continue to lead the way in providing accessible, affordable fertility care," added Dr. Kiltz. "This is about giving every hopeful parent a chance to bring life into the world. We stand ready to support this initiative and work toward a future where fertility care is no longer out of reach for anyone."

RFK Jr.‘s new attack on vaccines, briefly explained

This story appeared in The Logoff, a daily newsletter that helps you stay informed about the Trump administration without letting political news take over your life. Subscribe here. Welcome to The Logoff: Today, Dylan Scott and I are focusing on US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to fire every member of a federal vaccine advisory board, an attack on medical science that will have negative repercussions for public health. What's the latest? Kennedy fired every sitting member of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices on Monday. What does this board do? For more than 60 years, the panel has advised the federal government on vaccine policy, providing guidance — that officials have almost always followed — on which shots people should get and when. What's next? The vaccine advisory committee was first convened by the surgeon general in 1964, but it is not enshrined in federal law. That means Kennedy can change its membership or dissolve the panel entirely if he so desires. In firing the board's members, Kennedy called it 'little more than a rubber stamp for any vaccine.' What does this mean for us? Absent clear, science-based federal guidance on vaccines, it'll be harder for us to know which shots health experts think we should be getting. And, more broadly, it'll be harder for the population to achieve 'herd immunity' — when enough people are vaccinated against a disease to prevent it from spreading widely.

RFK Jr. fires entire CDC vaccine advisory panel

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has fired all 17 members of a committee that advises the federal government on vaccine safety and will replace them with new members, a move that the Trump administration's critics warned would create public distrust around the government's role in promoting public health. At issue is the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices, which makes recommendations on the safety, efficacy and clinical need of vaccines to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It comprises medical and public health experts who develop recommendations on the use of vaccines in the civilian population of the United States. 'Today we are prioritizing the restoration of public trust above any specific pro- or anti-vaccine agenda,' Kennedy, who has a history of controversial views on vaccines, said on June 9 in announcing the overhaul. 'The public must know that unbiased science – evaluated through a transparent process and insulated from conflicts of interest – guides the recommendations of our health agencies.' More: Many said RFK Jr. would launch a war on vaccines, medicine. Is it here? Kennedy's decision marks a reversal from what a key Republican senator said the Trump Cabinet member had promised during his confirmation hearings earlier this year. Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-Louisiana, chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, said Kennedy had promised to maintain the advisory committee's current composition. "If confirmed, he will maintain the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices without changes," Cassidy said. The Biden administration appointed all 17 sitting committee members, with 13 of them taking their seats in 2024. According to Trump's HHS, those appointments would have prevented the current administration from choosing a majority of the committee until 2028. "A clean sweep is necessary to reestablish public confidence in vaccine science,' said Kennedy, adding that the new members "will prioritize public health and evidence-based medicine" and "no longer function as a rubber stamp for industry profit-taking agendas." The Advisory Committee for Immunization Practice is scheduled to hold its next meeting June 25-27 at CDC headquarters in Atlanta. An HHS source familiar with the details told USA TODAY that the new members of the panel will attend the session. More: Emotions fly high behind the scenes at RFK Jr.'s Congressional hearings Critics of the Trump administration warned that Kennedy's move was not necessary, undermines the government's role in vaccine safety and could lead to more deadly disease transmissions. Dr. Paul A. Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a member of the Food and Drug Administration Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee, told USA TODAY that Kennedy was "fixing a problem that doesn't exist." Picking members for the committee generally involves a three- to four-month vetting process by the CDC. "Now he's just going to pick people he likes," Offit added. "Presumably people who are like-minded, and I think that will shake confidence in this committee." Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Kennedy and the Trump administration are "taking a wrecking ball to the programs that keep Americans safe and healthy." The New York Democrat added that wiping out an entire panel of vaccine experts doesn't build trust – it shatters it. "Worse, it sends a chilling message: that ideology matters more than evidence, and politics more than public health," he said. Dr. Bruce Scott, president of the American Medical Association, warned that Kennedy's work has undermined trust and "upends a transparent process that has saved countless lives." "With an ongoing measles outbreak and routine child vaccination rates declining, this move will further fuel the spread of vaccine-preventable illnesses," he said. A measles outbreak recently killed two unvaccinated children in Texas. The CDC said the deaths were the first from measles in the United States since 2015. Kennedy has backed vaccination as a preventive tool during a measles outbreak but also said that vaccines should be left to parents' discretion. As of June 5, a total of 1,168 confirmed measles cases were reported by 34 jurisdictions. The CDC also reported three deaths due to the outbreak.
