# Vietnamese Healthcare Copywriting & Clinical Compliance (`vietnamese-healthcare-copy`)

In Vietnamese healthcare, copywriting mistakes carry **direct medical, ethical, and statutory liability** rather than mere stylistic flaws. Writing an obsolete licensing term like `Chứng chỉ hành nghề` violates Luật Khám bệnh, chữa bệnh 2023; promising `Chữa khỏi dứt điểm 100%` breaches advertising and medical statutes; omitting the mandatory statutory disclaimer on health supplements triggers immediate sanctions under Nghị định 15/2018/NĐ-CP; and vague dosage instructions like `uống khi cần` threaten patient safety.

This skill equips clinicians, hospital administrators, pharmaceutical marketers, and health-tech developers with authoritative Vietnamese medical copy, clinical EMR standards, and regulatory compliance tools.

---

## 1. Register & Sociolinguistic Etiquette in Healthcare

Healthcare communications in Vietnam operate under strict sociolinguistic conventions:

| Context / Surface | Register | Reader Address (`Hô`) | Speaker (`Xưng`) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hospital patient portal, appointment booking, discharge instructions | `healthcare` | `Quý khách` | `Chúng tôi` / `[Tên bệnh viện]` | High-respect floor; never use `bạn` or `cả nhà` |
| Electronic Medical Record (EMR), SOAP notes, lab results, prescriptions | `healthcare-clinical` | *(impersonal third-person)* | `Bác sĩ` / *(impersonal)* | Objective third-person (`người bệnh`, `bác sĩ`); zero `bạn`/`quý khách` |
| Dietary supplement (TPCN) landing pages, public health articles | `healthcare` | `Quý khách` / `Người đọc` | `Chúng tôi` / `[Tên thương hiệu]` | Maintain professional advisory tone |
| Emergency return instructions & critical red-flag alerts | `healthcare` | `Quý khách` / `Người bệnh` | `Khoa Cấp cứu` / `Bác sĩ điều trị` | Clear, imperative, urgent action orientation |

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **The Clinical Register Law:** In EMR records, clinical consultation notes, and official prescription orders, the communication must remain strictly impersonal and objective (`healthcare-clinical`). Direct second-person pronouns (`bạn`, `anh/chị`, `em`) are forbidden in clinical notes to preserve legal objectivity.

## 2. Supported Healthcare Doctypes

The validator evaluates copy against 5 domain-specific healthcare doctypes:

1. **`tpcn-ad` (Quảng cáo / Mô tả Thực phẩm bảo vệ sức khỏe):**
   - Regulated under Nghị định 15/2018/NĐ-CP Điều 27 and Thông tư 05/2018/TT-BYT.
   - Requires mandatory statutory disclaimer (`MED001`) and strictly prohibits doctor testimonials (`MED005`).
2. **`prescription` (Đơn thuốc ngoại trú / Hướng dẫn dùng thuốc):**
   - Regulated under Thông tư 52/2017/TT-BYT, Thông tư 18/2018/TT-BYT, and Thông tư 27/2021/TT-BYT.
   - Enforces explicit route, single dosage, frequency, timing (`sau ăn`), and warning directions (`MED004`).
3. **`discharge-summary` (Giấy ra viện / Hướng dẫn chăm sóc sau xuất viện):**
   - Regulated under Thông tư 32/2023/TT-BYT (mẫu Giấy ra viện và tóm tắt bệnh án).
   - Enforces emergency red-flag instructions (`MED007`) to protect patients against post-operative complications.
4. **`emr-note` (Hồ sơ bệnh án điện tử EMR / Phiếu kết quả cận lâm sàng):**
   - Regulated under Luật Khám bệnh, chữa bệnh 2023 and Thông tư 32/2023/TT-BYT.
   - Requires standardized SOAP note structure, ICD-10/ICD-11 diagnostic coding, and objective tone.
5. **`clinic-landing` (Trang giới thiệu bệnh viện, phòng khám chuyên khoa, tầm soát):**
   - Regulated under Luật Quảng cáo 2012 và Luật Khám bệnh, chữa bệnh 2023.
   - Enforces Giấy phép hoạt động, Giấy phép hành nghề (`MED003`), and bans unverified superlatives (`LAW001`).

## 3. Clinical & EMR Standards (Luật KCB 2023 & Thông tư 32/2023/TT-BYT)

1. **Licensing Terminology Update (`MED003`):**
   - ❌ `Chứng chỉ hành nghề khám bệnh, chữa bệnh` / `Chứng chỉ hành nghề y` *(stale terminology under repealed 2009 law)*.
   - ✅ `Giấy phép hành nghề khám bệnh, chữa bệnh` (or `Giấy phép hành nghề`) under Luật Khám bệnh, chữa bệnh số 15/2023/QH15.
2. **Electronic Prescriptions (Thông tư 52/2017 & TT 27/2021/TT-BYT):**
   - Vague dosage instructions (`MED004`) like `uống khi cần`, `uống tùy ý`, `ngày uống vài lần` are strictly prohibited.
   - Prescriptions must specify route (`Uống`), single dose (`1 viên`), daily frequency (`2 lần/ngày`), timing (`sau ăn 30 phút`), and warning instructions (`Tái khám ngay nếu có dấu hiệu bất thường`).
3. **Discharge Summary Red Flags (`MED007`):**
   - Every discharge summary must feature explicit emergency warning instructions (`Dấu hiệu cần tái khám ngay hoặc đến cơ sở y tế cấp cứu`) covering persistent high fever, incision bleeding/pus, acute pain, or respiratory distress.
4. **Structured Clinical SOAP Notes & Diagnostic Coding:**
   - Diagnostic statements must follow standardized ICD-10/ICD-11 syntax: Primary diagnosis (`Bệnh chính`), comorbidities (`Bệnh kèm theo`), and complications (`Biến chứng`).

---

## 4. Pharmaceutical & Dietary Supplement (TPCN) Compliance

1. **Mandatory Statutory Disclaimer (`MED001`):**
   - Under **Nghị định 15/2018/NĐ-CP Điều 27**, all health supplement advertising and packaging must display:
     `"Thực phẩm này không phải là thuốc và không có tác dụng thay thế thuốc chữa bệnh."`
2. **Prohibition of Curative & Absolute Claims (`MED002`):**
   - Absolute therapeutic promises are illegal: `chữa khỏi hoàn toàn 100%`, `điều trị dứt điểm vĩnh viễn`, `cam kết khỏi bệnh 100%`, `thần dược trị bách bệnh`, `thay thế hoàn toàn thuốc đặc trị`.
3. **Ban on Doctor Endorsements & Patient Testimonials (`MED005`):**
   - Advertising health supplements using physician imagery, medical uniforms, patient thank-you letters (`thư cảm ơn của bệnh nhân`), or testimonial videos is strictly prohibited under Decree 15/2018/NĐ-CP Điều 27 khoản 2.
4. **Medical Device Classification (Nghị định 98/2021 & 07/2023):**
   - Distinguish Category A (low risk), Category B (low-moderate risk), Category C (moderate-high risk), and Category D (high risk/implantables).

---

## 5. Patient-Centered Communication & Empathetic Tone

1. **Eliminate Stigmatizing & Blaming Language (`MED006`):**
   - ❌ `Bệnh nhân không chịu hợp tác` → ✅ `Người bệnh chưa phối hợp tuân thủ điều trị`.
   - ❌ `Bệnh nan y vô phương cứu chữa` → ✅ `Tiên lượng dè dặt / bệnh giai đoạn tiến triển`.
   - ❌ `Con nghiện` → ✅ `Người điều trị nghiện chất` / `Người bệnh rối loạn sử dụng chất`.
   - ❌ `Kẻ tâm thần`, `Bị điên` → ✅ `Người bệnh rối loạn sức khỏe tâm thần`.
2. **Breaking Bad News (SPIKES Protocol in Vietnamese):**
   - Structured 6-step approach: Setting (bối cảnh riêng tư) → Perception (thăm dò nhận thức) → Invitation (thăm dò nhu cầu thông tin) → Knowledge (trao đổi thông tin y khoa bình dị) → Empathy (thấu cảm, đồng hành) → Strategy & Summary (phác đồ điều trị tiếp theo).
3. **Health Data Privacy (Điều 10 Luật KCB 2023 & Nghị định 13/2023/NĐ-CP):**
   - Medical records and health conditions are sensitive personal data; public disclosure without written consent is strictly prohibited. De-identify all patient identifiers in academic or clinical case reports.

---

## 6. Medical Number Typography & Lab Formatting

- **Vietnamese Digit Grouping (`NUM001` & `NUM003`):**
  - Group thousands with periods: `1.500.000 ₫`, `250.000 ₫` (never commas: `1,500,000`).
  - Decimal fractions separated by comma: `HbA1c 6,5%`, `đường huyết 7,2 mmol/L`, `thân nhiệt 38,5 °C` (never periods: `6.5%`).
- **Standard Clinical Units & Orthography:**
  - Standardized units: `g/dL`, `mmol/L`, `mmHg`, `lần/phút`, `mg/ngày`.
  - Date format: strict `dd/MM/yyyy` (`26/10/2026`).

---

## 7. Validation & CLI Usage
