Admission (end)

• For admission to the Sírio-Libanês Hospital, we ask you to bring the following documents:
• Passport or Identity Card for Foreigners (RNE) for the patient and companion;
• Proof of residence for the patient and companion;
• Application for hospitalization or tests, with a note from your physician explaining why they are necessary. In emergencies, this application is not necessary;
• International insurance card, if any.

Contact the International Patient Service Center for help with this process.

Hospital bill (end)

If there are amounts for you to pay directly to the Sírio-Libanês Hospital, we will give you an estimate and present a bill before treatment begins, except in an emergency.

Estimated costs for clinical or surgical hospitalization, procedures or tests at the Diagnostic Center or for attendance at the Oncology Center must be paid when treatment starts. The amounts may vary during your treatment. If an additional payment is needed, you will be notified immediately.

In an emergency, you can pay for the treatment afterwards, unless you are hospitalized. In this case, the account must be settled during your stay in the hospital.

Methods of payment

Payment can be made in cash, by bank transfer or by credit card. In the case of a transfer, get the bank details from the International Patient Service Center and send the transfer confirmation with the patient’s name and details of the procedure by email to the accounts department.

Physicians’ fees

Physicians’ fees are charged separately from the hospital bill and must be paid in cash in the physician’s office or in the Physicians’ Fees sector. Talk to us if you have questions about this or need any help.

International insurance (end)

Talk to your travel insurance company and they will tell you what to do.
