Cosas a Tener en Cuenta
Still a Developing Medical Tourism Market
Romania receives around 25,000 foreign medical patients per year — compared to Hungary's 2 million. Government promotion and infrastructure are still developing. Stick to established, internationally referenced clinics.
Public Health System Limitations
Romania's public health system is under-resourced (5.7% GDP spending). However, this does not affect the private sector — always use accredited private clinics for medical tourism.
Quality Outside Bucharest Varies
Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca have excellent private facilities. Outside these cities, quality can vary significantly. Always request clinic accreditation documentation before booking.
Currency Exchange
Romania uses the Romanian Leu (RON), not the Euro. Exchange rates fluctuate. Get euro-denominated quotes from clinics — most major clinics price in EUR for international patients.
