Our Services

The Website is a platform that provides the user with information about medical travel services and the clinics where they are available (“clinics” or “medical centers”).

On the website, you can

  • Find information about medical centers, doctors, and the services they offer
  • Consult with our coordinator to discuss clinics, doctors, and available services.
  • Receive assistance in selecting the optimal medical solution for your needs.
  • Obtain an individualized treatment program from our partner clinic.
  • Interact with our Treatment Cost Calculator.
  • Interact with the Symptom & Diagnostic quiz.
  • Make a deposit for a scheduled appointment.
  • Schedule a visit to your chosen medical center.
  • Request a 'Second Opinion.'
  • Request a 'Tele/Video Consultation.'

HealthTrip does not assign users to specific clinics or doctors; instead, we provide a curated list based on your preferences. Our goal is to assist you in finding the best healthcare option, considering factors such as language, country, medical needs, financial preferences, and other circumstances. Furthermore, we facilitate connections between HealthTrip patients and selected centers, offering support throughout communication, assistance with visit arrangements, and continued support even after you return home.Throughout your interaction with the website, our dedicated HealthTrip coordinators are available to assist.

HealthTrip operates independently of clinics, and we do not guarantee the quality or specialization of their services. We are not intermediaries between patients and medical centers, and we do not directly provide medical services. The information on the website does not constitute medical advice and should not be used as a guide for action.

We collaborate with medical centers through direct agreements or in partnership with our business associate, Global Patient Tech Pte Ltd. (UEN: 201838268K; address: VISION EXCHANGE, 2 VENTURE DRIVE, #13-30, Postal 608526). Our role is to facilitate connections and provide information, and we do not endorse or ensure the quality of the services provided by medical centers.


Deposit payment terms

In certain cases, as outlined in our signed agreements with clinics or medical centers, we may request a deposit to secure and confirm your appointment. This information is communicated to you in advance.

The deposit amount is 200 (two hundred) euros or US dollars, depending on the currency of your order. It serves to ensure your arrival at the medical center. Legally, the deposit is a payment for our services; however, the clinics will deduct this amount from the total treatment cost. Consequently, with HealthTrip, your overall payment remains equivalent to what you would pay by contacting the clinic directly.

It's important to note that the deposit is not a payment for the specific medical services you've ordered.

Medical services are invoiced directly by the medical centers. Deposits can be paid through your Account or a third-party payment services provider, subject to their terms and privacy notices. We are not responsible for the processing of your personal data by third-party providers.

Refund requests for deposits due to cancellations can be made via email at [email protected], provided it is done no later than 10 days before the appointment date. Refunds will be processed within 30 days. Failure to comply with this timeframe will result in non-refundability.

Please be aware that deposit payments and refunds are not available for Visa or Mastercard owners from the Republic of Cuba, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Republic of Sudan, the Syrian Arab Republic, and the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Alternatively, you may choose to pay directly to our bank account or the medical center, as indicated in the quote provided to you.
