UK NHS Reimbursement
of treatments provided by Tokuda Hospital Bulgaria

How it works

The EU Directive gives you the right to access healthcare services in Bulgaria / EEA country/ as long as the treatment is medically necessary and would be made available to you under the NHS.

 

You will have to pay the costs upfront. You can claim reimbursement when you return, up to the amount the treatment would have cost under the NHS.

 

Prior authorisation is required in most cases. This will confirm whether you are entitled to the treatment and the level of reimbursement you can expect. Find out what types of services require prior authorisation (PDF). Please note that this is not necessarily a definitive list.

 

You must be allowed to have treatment abroad if you cannot have the same treatment on the NHS within a medically acceptable period. If "undue delay" applies in your particular case, you must be granted authorization.
