Will I be entitled to compensation if something goes wrong?
If you have suffered an injury as a result of treatment abroad, the treatment country’s rules on compensation apply, and you must claim compensation yourself. If there is a separate patient injury compensation in the country of treatment, you must contact this yourself. You may have to make a claim for compensation after injury during treatment directly to the treatment site.
The Patient Injuries Act only covers foreign hospitals and doctors if the public sector has entered into an agreement with the treatment center in advance through an agreement on the purchase of services. An example is when patients are sent abroad as a result of a waiting list guarantee.
