The annual fee is the only payment that goes to us. It is fixed for the membership year and is not recalculated against the hospital bill. A course means one treatment plan the hospital sets after examining the patient, from first session to discharge summary.
Not included in the membership

- Accommodation, international flights, visa fees, travel insurance, local transport beyond airport transfers, and meals.
- Additional courses beyond the tier allowance, quoted at the published annual rate for the extra course.
- Interpretation required for a companion travelling separately from the patient.
