Our model
A clear financial relationship01 02 03
Our Payment Model in One Sentence
When a partner hospital pays TIB HIND, it is paying for patient coordination and related support. That payment is between the hospital and TIB HIND; it should not replace a clear hospital estimate or influence whether a treatment is clinically appropriate.
You pay providers
Medical charges go to the hospital. Travel and accommodation are paid to their providers.
The hospital may pay TIB HIND
A service or coordination payment may be made under our agreement with that hospital.
Important: TIB HIND does not diagnose, prescribe, provide hospital care or guarantee an outcome. Clinical decisions remain with the responsible doctors and hospital.
Who pays what
Separate coordination from treatment
What You Pay and What Is Not a Separate TIB HIND Fee
Medical and travel costs
- Hospital consultations, investigations and treatment
- Medicines, implants, devices and blood products
- Visa and government charges
- Flights, accommodation, meals and local travel
- Costs caused by a changed clinical plan or longer stay
Initial coordination services
- Collecting reports for initial review
- Requesting suitable hospital options
- Coordinating preliminary appointments
- Requesting a written hospital estimate
- General arrival and communication coordination
A third-party charge may still apply where you separately choose a paid service, such as a hotel, transport provider, translator or document service. Ask for the provider and amount before agreeing.

How We Protect Your Right to Choose
A hospital-funded model creates a relationship that patients deserve to understand. These safeguards separate coordination from clinical judgment and keep the final choice with you.
Clinical fit comes first
A payment arrangement does not make a hospital suitable. We first consider the condition, specialist type, hospital capability and practical needs described in the patient’s file.
No paid directory ranking
A hospital or doctor cannot purchase a higher position in the TIB HIND directories. Directory order is not a recommendation or outcome claim.
You can decline
You may request clarification, seek another opinion, choose a different hospital or stop the process before committing to treatment.
Estimates come from providers
The hospital remains responsible for its clinical plan, estimate, invoice, cancellation terms and any revision after examination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does TIB HIND charge patients a consultation or coordination fee?
TIB HIND does not charge a separate coordination fee for the initial services listed on this page. The hospital, doctor and other providers may charge for their own services.
Does the hospital add TIB HIND’s fee to my bill?
The hospital’s estimate should list the medical services and patient charges it expects you to pay. Ask us and the hospital to clarify any line that is unclear. TIB HIND’s commercial arrangement with a hospital is separate from your clinical quotation.
Do all hospitals pay TIB HIND the same amount?
Commercial arrangements can differ. They do not determine whether a hospital is clinically suitable, and they do not guarantee that every hospital will accept a case.
Can I choose a hospital that is not a TIB HIND partner?
Yes. You remain free to choose another provider or obtain an independent opinion. TIB HIND may not be able to coordinate services at a hospital with which it has no working arrangement.
Who receives my treatment payment?
Medical payments should be made through the hospital or authorised provider using the payment details and receipt process they confirm. Travel and accommodation are paid to the relevant providers.
What if the treatment plan or price changes after arrival?
The treating team should explain the clinical reason and the hospital should issue an updated estimate or consent where applicable. Ask before approving non-emergency additions whenever possible.
Does payment to TIB HIND guarantee treatment success?
No. No facilitator, hospital or doctor can guarantee a result. Clinical decisions and outcomes depend on the individual case and remain the responsibility of the qualified treating team.
