The Law on Marriage and Family allowed surrogacy from January 1, 2015. On July 28, 2016, the Hue Central Hospital’s first surrogate baby was born, weighing 3.5 kilogrammes.
In April 2016, the hospital established a reproductive support department. It aims to build a reproductive support centre for the central region in the future.
