Çekmeköy Hospital

1. Admission Procedures

When you arrive at our hospital, you will be greeted by Patient Advisors and directed to the Admission Coordination Office. After the Admission Coordinator verifies your identification and appointment details, your admission process will begin, and you will be asked to sign the Admission Consent Form and Declaration of Commitment. You will be provided with information regarding the cost of your treatment, and a deposit will be requested based on the determined amount. Once your admission procedures are complete, you will be escorted by a Patient Advisor to the relevant department, where you will receive the necessary information about your room, and arrangements will be made to ensure your comfort.

2. Discharge Services

After your doctor notifies the nurse of your discharge, your file will first undergo final checks by Nursing Services and the Ward Secretary, and the discharge information will be forwarded to the Discharge Department. The Discharge Department will quickly process cash payments and insurance claims to prepare your bill. Once your discharge process begins, you may need to wait a short while for the bill to be generated. After your procedures are completed, you will be directed to the Discharge Department accompanied by the Ward Secretary or your nurse, along with the Discharge Authorization Form. Once your payments have been processed and your invoice has been issued, the Discharge Approval Form handed to you will be collected by the Ward Nurse in Charge or your Secretary, and your discharge process will be finalized. After the discharge process is complete, your physician-approved discharge summary will be provided to you by your Ward Secretary.

3. Billing and Admission

You can pay the treatment fee determined prior to admission to the Admission Coordination Office during the admission process. You can obtain all information regarding payments throughout your treatment period from the Admission Coordination Office. For long-term hospitalizations, interim payments will be requested to cover your treatment expenses. Payments can be made in Turkish Lira, by credit card, in U.S. Dollars, or in Euros. For patients with private insurance, procedures are carried out based on prior authorization, and a numerical confirmation is obtained at discharge to provide you with the necessary information. This process typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.

For patients undergoing treatment at a healthcare facility or at home whose relatives are unable to accompany them for any reason, companionship services are provided on an hourly or daily basis by healthcare professionals or patient care staff holding a Patient Care Certificate issued by the Ministry of National Education. In companionship services provided by healthcare professionals, simple medical procedures such as monitoring blood sugar and blood pressure, as well as dressing changes if necessary, are performed. Services provided by patient care staff, on the other hand, include non-medical care services such as positioning the patient, feeding, changing diapers, or providing toilet assistance.
