Success rates at every age
Each clinic's CDC live-birth rate per intended egg retrieval, for patients using their own eggs, in each age band (2022 data). Read the row for your age. A dash means the CDC reported no rate for that clinic at that age.
For patients under 35, CCRM Northern Virginia reported a live-birth rate of 40.7% per intended egg retrieval and Columbia Fertility Associates reported 42.0% (CDC data for 2022). CCRM Northern Virginia reported the higher rate for patients over 40, and Columbia Fertility Associates for patients under 35 and 35 to 37, and the two reported the same rate for patients 38 to 40.
These are averages for each clinic's own patients, who differ in age, diagnosis and treatment history, so a higher rate can reflect who a clinic treats as much as how well it treats them. The CDC's own guidance says "comparisons between clinics should be made with caution", because clinics "have different patient populations or ART treatment methods".

What each clinic posts on its website
Each amount is the clinic's own posted figure, linked to the page it was read on, with what it covers. The two clinics' amounts rarely cover the same services, so we never call one cheaper from posted prices: read the terms, then ask both for an itemized quote.
CCRM Northern Virginia
IVF, as its website posts it
CCRM’s official financing page publishes an approximate per-cycle IVF range of $12,660-$30,780; $12,660 is the low end of the published range, not a Vienna-specific quoted fee. The listed components are bloodwork and monitoring, egg retrieval, sperm preparation, fertilization and embryo culture, embryo cryopreservation, embryo biopsy and PGT-A, and frozen embryo transfer. CCRM says the range represents an average, prices are subject to market conditions, and exact costs vary by the personalized treatment plan. The page does not state whether medications, anesthesia, or other ancillary charges are included or excluded, and it does not provide a dated Vienna fee schedule. Local applicability to CCRM Northern Virginia in Vienna, VA is therefore unconfirmed; insurance coverage, prior authorization or referral requirements, and payment timing may vary, with treatment costs typically due before the cycle starts.
