Where to Get Refunds

There are no refunds available.

Doctors, Dentists & Prescriptions

You can only get treatment from surgeries which have a sign saying they're contracted with the National Health Insurance Fund - in Hungarian: "OEP-pel szerzo dött szolgaltato"

Doctors consultations are free of charge.

Emergency dental treatment is generally free. Unless it's an emergency, private charges for seeing a doctor or dentist are non-refundable.

Where a doctor or dentist issues a prescription, take it to the pharmacy - you don't need any no other documentation.

You'll have to pay between 10%-90% of the cost of the medicine. It's not refundable.

Hospital Treatment

In-patient and out-patient hospital treatment is normally provided through a referral from a GP. There are a few cases where a referral isn't necessary.

Treatment is free of charge, except where extra services are requested - a better accommodation or meals, say. Charges for extra services are non-refundable.

If you're treated privately in a hospital, none of the charges are refundable.
