| |
| How is it that prices are so low? |
| The services we offer have the standard fees for Argentina (they are similar to what a middle class Argentinean would pay for medical services). The prices seem low because of the exchange rate: one dollar equals 3 pesos. Therefore, for people living in industrialized countries Argentina is a very convenient country. |
| |
| Can I trust the physicians that will attend me? |
| Plenitas only works with the best physicians of the country. They are subjected to a very strict recruitment process based on professional background. The patient may consult the CV of the physician that will attend him/her. If you wish to see the list of professionals according to specialization, visit the section Our Professionals. |
| |
| I cannot speak Spanish, how can I communicate with the physicians? |
All the medical packages Plenitas offer include bilingual assistance. One of our assistants will accompany you to every medical consultation and to the clinic on the day of the intervention. The assistant will be your personal interpreter and, at the same time, will answer all your questions regarding medical treatments.
The assistants we provide are not exclusive, they are assigned according to the availability, that is, one assistant may receive you at the airport whereas another will go with you to the medical consultation. |
| |
| What if I must postpone my trip due to personal reasons? |
| If the patient must postpone the trip due to personal reasons after the deposit was made (50% of the package's total cost), he/she may ask for a reschedule. Plenitas will stick to the original price for 6 months after the date in which the trip was postponed, but once that period elapses, the package's price could be modified. The deposit will be held and considered as payment on account. Visit the section Terms and Conditions of the Service to see the cancellation policy. |
| |
| What if in the pre-surgical consultation the physician resolves that I cannot undergo the treatment? |
Plenitas recommends asking all your questions before the trip, especially if you suffer from any diseases such as diabetes, cardiopathies or high blood pressure, that will call for special cares in order to carry out the procedure.
If the procedure is cancelled by decision of the physician, we will abide by the cancellation policy. Visit the section Terms and Conditions of the Service to see the cancellation policy. |
| |
| What happens if there are complications? |
In Argentina, the law requires the patient to sign an agreement to state that he/she will undergo surgery on his/her own free will.
If any problem arises and the treatment needs to be changed, the physician will inform you of the options so that you will be able to make the best decision. If by any reason you are in no condition to make a decision, the physician will discuss the matter with the person you have assigned as your guardian.
You will be kept informed at all times and, if necessary, Plenitas will offer you the possibility of asking for a second opinion from another professional.
|
| |
| What if I decide to leave earlier from Argentina? |
| The physician decides the minimum time that the patient will need to stay in Argentina in order to recover favorably. Plenitas will not be held responsible for the decisions made solely by the patient. |
| |
| What if I decide to stay longer in Argentina? |
| If you wish to stay longer, you may get in touch with Plenitas in order to rearrange your trip. |
