Hospital management software for Vietnam's growing private sector
Vietnam's private hospitals are growing fast and are under pressure to move to electronic medical records (bệnh án điện tử). Most also need to exchange data with the social health insurance system. TechPro can run a modern private hospital; Vietnamese language and local integrations would be part of a scoped project.

What is changing for Vietnamese hospitals
The Ministry of Health has pushed hospitals towards electronic medical records under Circular 46/2018, with deadlines that have pushed many facilities to replace paper and older systems. Hospitals treating insured patients also submit standardised data files to the social health insurance appraisal system, so software must produce those files correctly.
Data protection has tightened. The Personal Data Protection Law took effect on 1 January 2026, building on Decree 13/2023, and treats health data as sensitive personal data. Cross-border transfers and data localisation rules also matter for cloud deployments.

Vietnamese legal framework
| Area | What applies | How TechPro approaches it |

| Medical records | Circular 46/2018/TT-BYT on electronic medical records | EMR with audit; Vietnamese requirements to be mapped |
| Health insurance | Social health insurance data submission standards | To be built in a Vietnam pack |
| Cybersecurity and data location | Cybersecurity Law and Decree 53/2022 | Hosting decided with counsel |

Our view on Vietnam
TechPro's core is a good match for private hospitals that want one system for clinical care and revenue. The work needed is substantial: Vietnamese localisation, insurance data files, digital signature integration and hosting that satisfies local rules.
We would approach Vietnam with a hospital group as launch partner and a local implementation partner, after a scoping study confirms the effort.
Questions we would answer in scoping
Which insurance data files and versions you submit today, and how often they change. Which digital signature provider you use for medical records. Whether your hospitals need data hosted in Vietnam. How Vietnamese clinical terminology is used across your departments. These answers set the size of the work and decide whether a launch makes sense.
Practical arrangements
Time overlap
Vietnam is 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of IST.
Language
Vietnamese localisation by native medical translators.
Partner
Local implementation partner for on-site support.
Hosting
Local or regional hosting as counsel advises.
Starting in Vietnam: a scoping study first
Vietnam would need a new country pack. We start with scoping and only proceed when the requirements and timeline are clear to both sides.
