Our trusted partners
We have partnered with a number of carefully selected hospitals in Europe. Our team has visited each hospital, to ensure that their standard of care and patient service is high and equivalent to a private hospital in Ireland. Our partner hospitals are well established with expertise and leading surgeons specializing in a range of medical fields.
See our partner hospitalsAs an entitled patient, the cost of an operation can be reimbursed by the HSE.
We want everyone who wants to make use of their right to have treatment abroad to have the opportunity to do so, and not be restricted by financial circumstances.
Our Goal
We are committed to enabling better access to healthcare for patients on waiting lists in Ireland, giving you access to all the information you need about your patient rights as an EU citizen, so you can get back to your normal life quickly. Our work is about enabling you to find the treatment you need today and not to have to wait a day longer.
Why we exist
Ireland introduced the EU Cross Border Directive in 2014 , and yet many people are unfamiliar with it and the rights it offers to patients. This means that many patients are waiting for treatments for a long time unnecessarily when they could be getting their procedure much sooner.
It is unnecessary for a patient who is sick or injured to wait for treatment, those who are out of work and under financial pressure or requiring their family members to look after them. It is unnecessary for an employer who has to provide long-term sick leave, and it’s unnecessary for those working in Irelands healthcare system who aim to provide better and shorter waiting times for treatments.
We know that some patients end up paying large amounts of money to have their treatments carried out by private providers or travel aboard, paying more than necessary for their procedures in hospitals where standards low, compared to hospitals in the Nordics that we work with.
Dr Fast Track is here to help.
