Your treatment abroad checklist
Before you book your treatment abroad, use the checklist so you can feel confident that you’re making the right decision. All types of medical treatment involve some element of risk. It’s important to get as much information as possible about your treatment options so that you can make informed choices. There are some things to consider:
Your reasons
Have you thought carefully about your reasons for going abroad? Make sure your decision is based on the quality of the medical care you would like to receive and not on how appealing the destination seems for a holiday.
A second opinion
Have you spoken to your GP, dentist or clinician? There are several reasons why it’s a good idea to involve your doctor in your decision. Your doctor can give you a valuable second opinion as well as advice about treatment options and whether it is necessary. As your doctor could be involved in your aftercare, discuss with him or her how to transfer medical notes to the overseas team.
Research
Ask yourself the following questions:
Have you done your research?
Have you checked the qualifications of the medical team treating you?
Have you been able to ask them questions about your treatment?
Are you satisfied with the facilities and standards at the clinic or hospital where you will be treated?
Effects of treatment
Do you understand the possible complications and side effects that could arise from your treatment?
Aftercare
Are you clear about how your aftercare will be co-ordinated?
Finance
Have you done the maths? If your main reason for going abroad is to save money, make sure you’ve factored in fluctuating exchange rates, the possibility of extending your stay if necessary and the cost of possible return trips. It is also important that you’ve checked your entitlement and, if necessary, applied for funding in advance of treatment.
Insurance
Do you have appropriate travel insurance? Have you informed your insurer of your plans to have treatment abroad?
Trust
Do you trust the people you are dealing with?
