Forms of payment

At Alcla we want to provide you with all the means to make your stay during your rehabilitation treatment as pleasant as possible. We try to prevent the financial situation from becoming a limiting factor for receiving treatment in our Clinic.

There are two ways in which the patient can cover treatment costs.

– Medical Insurance/ International Medical Insurance: We verify, in conjunction with the coverage, what expenses of the services we provide are covered by insurance and, if there were additional expenses, these are covered by the patient.

– Private: We issue a 30-day valid estimate of the costs of the rehabilitation treatment, which must be paid prior to the patient’s admission to the Clinic. Payment can be made in cash or by bank transfer.

Besides, a guarantee deposit of 30% of the total value of the budgeted treatment is requested for additional studies, tests or practices that have not been contemplated in the initial budget. In case this is not necessary it will be reimbursed.
