Cross-border reproductive care is a growing worldwide phenomenon, raising questions about why assisted reproductive technology patients travel for care, what harms and benefits may result, and what duties health care providers may have in advising and treating the patients who travel for reproductive services. Cross-border care may benefit or harm assisted reproductive technology stakeholders, including patients, offspring, providers, gamete donors, gestational carriers, and local populations in destination countries.
