New Delhi: The Surrogacy (Regulation) Rules issued recently are a measure to empower a surrogate mother. Couples who intend to take the surrogacy route to become parents will have to buy a general health insurance coverage in favour of a surrogate mother for a period of 36 months.
The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 came into force on January 25 this year.
The insurance amount should be sufficient enough to cover expenses for all complications arising out of the pregnancy and also postpartum delivery complications. According to the rules notified by the Union health ministry on June 21, the number of attempts of any surrogacy procedure on the surrogate mother should not be more than three times, news agency PTI reported.
