The patient journey
Your route will depend on your needs and the provider’s response. Use these steps to know what to ask before you make a commitment.
Start with the treatment or condition you want help exploring, your country, and the questions you need answered.
Keep in mind: An enquiry is a request for information. It is not a diagnosis, appointment, or treatment booking.
Reports can help a provider understand what you are asking about, but you decide whether to include them.
Keep in mind: Do not email medical records or include information that is not relevant to your request.
The VStake team receives your enquiry and can follow up using the contact details you provide.
Keep in mind: Submitting a form does not guarantee that a provider will respond or accept a case.
If you ask VStake to make an enquiry, relevant details may be used to request information from a potential hospital or specialist.
Keep in mind: Only the treating provider can assess clinical suitability, recommend treatment, confirm availability, or issue a final estimate.
Take time to understand the proposed care, the provider, and the full costs before making a decision.
Keep in mind: Website information and early estimates are not a final quote or a promise of a treatment outcome.
Once you have provider information, coordinate travel details with the authorities and operators responsible for each service.
Keep in mind: A travel or support enquiry is not a confirmed booking. Get each provider’s written confirmation and terms before paying.
Areas to explore
Tell us which parts of the journey matter to you. Any service, provider response, fee, or booking must be checked for your specific case.
Ask what information a provider needs to review your enquiry, who will assess it, and what clinical decisions only the provider can make.
Request a written estimate and check its assumptions, validity period, inclusions, exclusions, payment recipient, and possible additional costs.
Ask whether help can be explored for visas, accommodation, transfers, or interpretation. Confirm availability, operator, price, and terms directly.
Before you commit
Plans can change as more clinical information becomes available. Written confirmations help you understand what is known and what still needs to be decided.
