Fertility centers are almost always organized on outpatient basiss, though they usually have a day clinic where patients can rest after strenuous procedures. However, as especially international patients will be advised to stay around for a number of weeks, the centers will cooperate with appropriate and attractive hospitals.
Fertility assistance is a medical area, where the general health insurance system in Germany generally will not cover the costs. So in this field, patients will usually have to pay the treatments privately. This has lead to substantial quality competion between the centers, and they have developed high levels of patient and service orientation aswell as attractive architectural ambiance.
International patients will profit from this and feel very welcome. Of course German Hospital Service Ltd. will be very happy to assist you to find the best center for your needs,
