Page 6 of 9 Membership Requirements All new applicant practices that perform IVF will be considered Provisional members for a minimum of one year before becoming eligible for Active status. Provisional status automatically terminates 24 months after the date of initial application unless the practice qualifies for Active membership sooner. Any practice approved with a Medical Director that is an active candidate, but not board certified, will remain a provisional practice until the Medical Director obtains board certification. If the Medical Director loses active candidate status before becoming board certified, that Medical Director is no longer eligible to serve. SART must be notified of any change in the primary practice positions. If any two of the three directors change (Practice, Medical or Lab) within a calendar year, this may constitute a new practice and a new application must be submitted. These changes in personnel must be reported to SART in writing. CVs are required for any and all changes in key personnel (Practice, Medical, Laboratory Director, or Lab Supervisor). Clinic specific results must be submitted annually with permission to publish and be validated. The IVF/Embryology laboratory must apply for certification by a SART accepted agency within two years of joining SART. ART team members agree to adhere to all current published guidelines and minimum standards of SART/ASRM. I hereby apply for membership in the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology on behalf of our practice. I certify that all of the above statements are correct. I understand that the requirements of membership include reporting specific results to SART for public disclosure and validation and remaining actively involved in ART. Continued membership also requires adherence to policies and guidelines as determined by SART. By accepting membership in SART, I agree to these requirements. By signing below I am also granting permission to SART to send me information via e mail as applicable.

Page 7 of 9 Attachment A DESIGNATED PRACTICE DIRECTOR: The Practice Director must be a member in good standing of ASRM. The Practice Director is that individual who will assume responsibility and accountability for the activities of the practice related to Assisted Reproductive Technologies. The Practice Director is the individual responsible for official communication with SART, its registry, or its designees, and for ensuring that the practice follows the SART requirements for membership. The Practice Director does not have to be a physician. MEDICAL DIRECTOR The Medical Director must be a member in good standing of ASRM. As of January 1, 2000, in order to obtain provisional status, the medical director of any practice must be REI subspecialty certified, an active candidate for subspecialty certification, or be grandfathered in under the terms listed below. Active Candidate clause: Any Medical Director with provisional approval as an active candidate by ABOG, must provide proof verifying their passing of ABOG REI written exam within the previous 5 years with their application. In addition, an active candidate must achieve ABOG REI subspecialty board certification prior to the practice becomes eligible to transition from Provisional to Active Membership Grandfather clause: Current medical directors in practices with SART provisional or active member status prior to 1/1/00 will be grandfathered. However, any replacement in this position within a practice must meet the REI requirement or have previously met the grandfather status requirement.

Page 8 of 9 Attachment B LABORATORY PERSONNEL LABORATORY DIRECTOR The Embryology Laboratory Director must be a member in good standing of ASRM. This individual shall assume overall responsibility for the embryology laboratory. This must be the individual who will be listed as laboratory director for formal accreditation. The qualifications are those that are in compliance with the most current published minimum standards (Fertil Steril_ 2008; 90:S45 59). Effective January 1, 2006, in addition to being in compliance with all published minimum standards (Fertil Steril_ 2008; 90:S45 59), all new ART Laboratory Directors must attain ABB HCLD (American Board of Bioanalysis High Complexity Laboratory Director) or ABB ELD (American Board of Bioanalysis Embryology Laboratory Director) certification or an equivalent. Individuals who qualified as Lab Directors prior to that time are strongly encouraged to pursue ABB HCLD or ABB ELD certification. Practices with "offsite" laboratory directors must have a qualified on site laboratory supervisor. The qualifications of the laboratory supervisor are those that are in compliance with the most current published minimum standards (Fertil Steril_ 2008;90:S45 59) An off site Embryology Laboratory Director is one whose primary directorship is at another physical facility that has a separate identification number (SART number, etc.), and a separate Medical Director. The following are not considered off site situations: A. Local satellite facilities in the same geographical area that are registered with the same SART Program and Medical Director. B. Directors who offer their services to different ART programs in a sequential manner and are onsite at each program while cases are being performed. An offsite Director has the same responsibilities as does an onsite Director. See CDC s Model for Laboratory Accreditation for details. (Federal Register: July 21, 1999 Vol 64 #139 [FR doc 99 18405 filed 7 19 99:11:53 am] Billing Code 4163 18 P). Among those duties are responsibilities for: A. All laboratory protocols and activities at the off site facility. B. The training (or ensuring the training) of the on site staff, ensuring that technical expertise is available for all of the ART Laboratory services provided at that site. C. Designating the means and times of regular and emergency communication with the off site facility. While the laboratory is actively treating patients, the offsite director is required to physically visit the laboratory at a frequency that will ensure the proper functioning of the Embryology Laboratory and assure appropriate patient care. The off site director must be present on site for any accreditation or certification procedures. A Laboratory Director shall direct no more than five (5) separate laboratories of any type. Facilities are considered separate laboratories if they have different identification numbers from a State, Federal or Private accreditation or licensing body.

Page 9 of 9 LABORATORY SUPERVISOR The Laboratory Supervisor must be a member in good standing of ASRM. The embryology laboratory may have one or more qualified laboratory supervisors who, under the direction of the laboratory director, provide day today supervision of laboratory personnel performing ART procedures. If the medical director is also the laboratory director, there should be a designated laboratory supervisor. If the embryology laboratory director is primarily located off site, there should be a designated laboratory supervisor. The laboratory supervisor cannot be the same individual listed as the laboratory director. Qualifications: The embryology laboratory supervisor should either meet the qualification requirements designated for laboratory director or fulfill both of the following requirements: A. Have an earned bachelor s or master s degree in chemical, physical, biological, medical technology, clinical or reproductive laboratory science from an accredited institution; B. Have documented training, which includes performing, at a minimum, at least 60 ART procedures under supervision or have held this position in a SART member clinic prior to 1/1/2011 (Please provide name, location, SART number of practice, and years in which you served as Laboratory Supervisor). In addition to meeting these requirements, the embryology laboratory supervisor should: A. Obtain at least 12 hours of accredited continuing education annually in assisted reproductive technology or clinical laboratory practice. B. Perform at least 20 ART procedures per year. Responsibilities: These include day to day supervision and oversight of the embryo laboratory and laboratory director responsibilities as authorized in writing by the embryology laboratory director.
