Ofte stillede spørgsmål om medicinske rejser

To put simply, medical travel is going abroad for treatment or wellness procedures. Such a trip normally looks as following: 1) a day of consultations; which is followed by 2) the treatment/surgery; and then 3) recovering/rehabilitation for a few days. After that a medical tourist may fly back home or spend some more time sightseeing, etc.

There are several noteworthy benefits for medical travellers. Among which:

• Lower costs than in the home country
• Better quality and/or customer service
• Lower waiting times for the desired procedure(s)
• All-inclusive care in and outside the clinic
• More privacy

Of course! We at Wellness Travels ensure pleasant stay for both the patient and his/her co-travellers. Besides, recovery is more fun with a friend or family member next by.

When it comes to accommodation & transportation the price will not differ much if you take someone with you. For example, a single room in our partner hotel is €32 per day, while a double is €38.

Yes, you are free to do so. However, note that organising everything by yourself will take much time & effort. And, probably it will cost you even more money than choosing us. This is due to the fact, that Wellness Travels welcomes over 100 patients from abroad every year; and, thus, gets special prices for most of the services included in the travel packages.

In any case, if you decide to go on your own, still drop us a message! We will do our best to help.

While you are still in Lithuania: in case you are feeling unwell or there is anything abnormal, you will be immediately checked upon by the medical personnel. Should there be a need for a follow-up procedure, it would be carried out for you free of charge.

Complication in the later stages of the recovery is even rarer and most of the time not an emergency. If they happen, our surgeon would consult you online and explain the steps to take.

For all plastic surgeries at our clinic, there is an insurance for up to €35000 provided. This covers injury (impairment of health) as a result of direct legitimate actions taken in providing medical services (malpractice insurance).

If your home country’s is in the EU/EEA, your medical insurance should be valid in LIthuania too (you need to possess European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), however). If unsure, please check with your national insurer.

Because of lower taxes and cheaper labour costs, health care, as well as other services and goods are less expensive in Lithuania than in Western Europe or Scandinavian countries. The cost of living in Lithuania is relatively low; clinics and other facilities have to pay smaller rents and salaries to their personnel, hence, you get a better price for the final service.

Even though the cost of health care is less, its quality is world class. The most experienced and internationally acclaimed specialists are working at our clinic.

You can watch our explanatory video on Youtube.

The medical personnel are fluent in English. Thus, our patients have no difficulties in communication. The same can be said about our other services’ providers.

In general, Lithuanians have good command of English. Yet, this is less true among the older generation.

Services provided in our clinic are recognised by the majority of main (health) insurers. These companies can, thus, reimburse certain medical expenses even if you undergo the treatment in another EU member state (e.g. Lithuania). UK patients are not excluded (in theory until the exit from the EU, but possibly even after that).

Treatments that are likely to be reimbursed (yet, that depends on every individual case, as well as insurer’s policies): tummy tuck, breast reduction, arm lift and thigh lift (usually, after bariatric/weight-loss treatment), eyelid correction, nose bridge correction, snorring treatment, etc.

The full payment for the medical procedures have to be done upon your arrival to the clinic in Lithuania. In some cases, you will be required to pay a deposit of up to 20% of the total sum (to reserve the surgery spot), as the clinic may need to make preparations prior to your surgery. Usually, you can get back the full deposit if you inform us about any changes no later than two weeks before the treatment date.

The deposit payment can be done easily via a bank transfer, PayPal or with a credit card.
