Frequently Asked Questions
By bringing together 220 clinics from 23 countries, we are currently an international organization providing patient support.
Our work is supported by 220 clinics in 23 countries. We do not represent a specific clinic. Bookicare is an organization of independent experts helping patients reach the most suitable treatment and specialist.
Bookicare unites 220 clinics that meet foreign patient admission standards. The call is made by an independent doctor‑coordinator who is not affiliated with any clinic.
Yes, we provide comprehensive support to patients, including visa applications. An official invitation from the clinic is required before submitting documents to the visa center. When urgent hospitalization is needed, it is possible to obtain an expedited visa in some countries.
If you are going for diagnosis or treatment, the clinic must have an official program and needs your passport details. Passport information and medical records are used to create an individual patient card at the clinic and to invite you for diagnosis. Your medical records are sent to the clinic where a multidisciplinary board of doctors determines the next steps for diagnosis and treatment.
The International Patient Support Center Bookicare is financed by 220 clinics that meet foreign patient admission standards. The patient only pays for the medical services provided at the hospital.
The cost is calculated individually and depends on the number and scope of procedures determined by the doctor after diagnosis and consultation. An estimated cost will be provided after a medical board meeting based on your specific situation.
Clinics are selected taking into account medical indicators and the patient's personal preferences. Priority is given to hospitals that can achieve the best treatment outcome. Usually it is not the clinic, but the professionalism and experience of the doctor that determines the success of the treatment.
The guarantee of treatment effectiveness is based on the clinic's statistics, the success rate of the procedures performed, the doctor's qualifications and experience, as well as the hospital's equipment.
If you are hospitalized, you will stay in the clinic. If you are receiving outpatient treatment, it is possible to stay in a hotel or apartment near the clinic — depending on your preference.
