01The independent provider’s quote
Ask the hospital or clinician for a current written quote. Confirm the proposed scope, inclusions, exclusions, payment schedule and circumstances that could change the amount.
- Which consultations, tests or procedures are included?
- Are medicines, supplies and accommodation charges separate?
- What deposit, cancellation and refund terms apply?
- Which charges require separate insurer confirmation?
02Travel, accommodation and service fees
Budget separately for flights, accommodation, a companion, transport and language support. Ask us to confirm the agreed coordination scope and fee.
- How long should you reserve accommodation for?
- What would a date change or extended stay cost?
- Are airport transfers and local journeys included?
- What will a travelling companion need?
Add meals, a companion’s costs and any visa or insurance costs to “Other costs & personal buffer”.
Enter each cost once; do not add a supplier charge again if it is already included in an agreed coordination fee.
