    • Additional Terms for Yunda Surrogacy Package

    At Yunda, we are committed to offering transparent and predictable cost management for every intended parent. The following outlines potential additional expenses that may arise during the surrogacy process. These terms will also be incorporated into the formal legal agreement. Please note that all figures are estimates — you will be responsible only for actual costs incurred by the surrogate, and any unused funds will be refunded after final reconciliation at the end of the journey. All estimates assume delivery occurs at a standard hospital near the surrogate’s place of residence. If you request a specific location or if medical needs change, costs may vary accordingly.

    Surrogate Benefits May Include:

    Bedrest stipend
    Twin pregnancy compensation$15,000
    C-section compensation$5,000
    Communicable disease compensation (e.g., HIV, hepatitis)$10,000
    Childcare allowance: per child per day (with receipts)$75
    Housekeeping assistance: per week (with receipts)$250
    Lost wages: Based on the surrogate’s documented employment
    Breast milk compensation: per week$250
    Uterine loss compensation: Partial removal / Full hysterectomy$2,500/$5,000

    Not Included in the Package:

    IVF clinic and fertility doctor costs (selected by the client)

    Newborn-related medical expenses after birth (e.g., NICU care, vaccines)

    Client’s travel, accommodation, and personal expenses during the journey

    Surrogate Insurance Notes:

  • If the surrogate qualifies during open enrollment, we will present a selection of compliant medical plans for your review and purchase
  • If insurance is not available, we will help arrange cash-pay options with the OB and hospital; common estimates include ~$5,000 for OB care and ~$8,000 for hospital delivery
  • If the surrogate has employer-provided insurance, we will still arrange for a secondary policy to ensure full pregnancy coverage
  • Note: Neither primary nor secondary insurance can guarantee 100% coverage — you are responsible for any deductibles, co-pays, or out-of-pocket expenses not reimbursed by insurance
