    These Hospitals and Clinics serve most members of Public Insurance Sectors and Private Insurance companies, reducing the final cost for the patient.

     

    The cost of surgery varies depending on the type of surgery, the surgical technique chosen, any special materials used, the hospitalization, the clinic chosen and, of course, the kind of insurance coverage that every patient has.

     

    The Secretary of the Medical Cabinet informs the patients regarding what they should know before the surgery about their insurance coverage, ie whether the insurance is an individual or group contract, if the patient has full coverage or a percentage, if there is an excess fee for the patient, if the insurance covers the doctor fees (surgeon, assistant, anesthetist).

     

    In the case of Private Insurance each patient is best to communicate with their Insurance Consultant for more detailed information and after that with the Secretary for their operation details.
