- Manage surrogacy journeys from initial match through postpartum, serving as the primary point of contact for all parties involved.
- Coordinate communication and scheduling between intended parents, gestational surrogates, IVF clinics, reproductive attorneys, mental health professionals, and insurance providers.
- Guide intended parents and surrogates through the match process, setting expectations and supporting alignment from the start.
- Monitor medical milestones including screening appointments, embryo transfers, pregnancy confirmations, OB appointments, and delivery planning.
- Track case timelines and ensure all contractual, legal, and medical deadlines are met.
- Proactively identify risks, delays, or complications and work to resolve or escalate issues before they impact the journey.
- Coordinate travel logistics when surrogates or intended parents need to be at clinic appointments or delivery locations.
Client Support & Communication
- Provide consistent, compassionate, non-clinical emotional support and education to intended parents and surrogates throughout the journey.
- Set clear expectations regarding timelines, medical processes, legal steps, financial responsibilities, and communication norms.
- Conduct regular check-ins with both intended parents and surrogates to ensure alignment, satisfaction, and emotional well-being.
- De-escalate conflicts or misunderstandings between intended parents and surrogates with professionalism and care.
- Serve as a calming, knowledgeable presence during high-stress moments such as failed transfers, pregnancy complications, or delivery changes.
- Communicate exclusively through company-approved systems.
Documentation & Compliance
- Maintain accurate, detailed, and up-to-date case records in company systems at every stage of the journey.
- Ensure all required documents (contracts, medical clearances, insurance confirmations, legal agreements) are collected, filed, and tracked.
- Follow HIPAA requirements and company confidentiality policies in all communications and record-keeping.
- Ensure compliance with ethical standards, company protocols, and applicable federal and state law.
- Prepare case summaries, status reports, and handoff documentation as needed.
