Hi,
I'm not sure if I read this incorrectly, but wouldn't the above statement suggest that the package price includes accommodations or "a stay" in the Ukraine for three months or "90 - 100 days"?
you have to rent an apartment and the package price is not cover that
here is a least details version of his cost..
The total cost of the lengthening program since 2014 takes into account a stay of a patient in the Ukraine for three months. 90-100 days - this is the time period for conducting a surgery and lengthening of femurs or tibias to the optimum length. The optimum length refers to the lengthening when muscles, tendons, and nerves are adapted sufficiently well to the new state of tension. It is 7.0 cm for femurs and 4.5-5.0 cm for tibias. The total cost of the lengthening program (TCLP) is 31 500,00 EUR ( for femurs /hips/) and 33 500 EUR (for tibias /shanks/). (Lengthening more than the optimum length increases the time period of lengthening and restoration. In this case it is necessary to adjust additional costs of the program of lengthening.)
This cost includes the cost of surgeries and a stay of a patient in hospital for the necessary term (as a rule 2-3 days), and also the cost of a surgery and a stay in hospital for the removal of devices (in 1 - 1.5 years after the beginning of lengthening). The cost of the lease of apartments during the stay for the period of the lengthening is not includes in TCLP. Assistant can help to lease suitable apartment. /Cost of comfortable apartments is around 1000 EUR per month. Additional costs may be associated with a broker service for searching for an apartment - usually half the monthly cost, single payment/. Choice is better to do together among prepared options. It will take 1-2 days, as a rule.
Assistant on duty can be present in the apartments around the clock, if it is necessary.
The first day (of the three months period) begins with the first day in the hospital.
During the period of stay out of the hospital, a patient receives medical services, the cost of which is included in the TCLP. Medical services consist of the doctor's visits, the necessary physiotherapy, massages (total 60 sessions of intensive lower limbs massage), the necessary medicines, test x-rays. During the three months stay a patient is provided with meals based on the agreed upon menu (preference in the food). The cost of food (products) is not included in the TCLP. Assistants can assist in purchase of products. Patient can visit supermarkets together with assistant for choice and purchase of products. Maintenance (household) services consist of laundry, cleaning, cooking. The cost of Assistant’s service /maintenance services/ (daily 25 -30 EUR) is not included in the TCLP.
The international telephone calls and high-speed internet access are not included in the TCLP. TCLP does not change if the patient leaves Ukraine before the end of a three months term. TCLP remains to be invariable for all sizes of lengthening within the optimum lengths. Patient can lease an apartment and organize the necessary maintenance services by him/herself. Payments are made in instalments by transfer of funds from the customer's bank’s account to the bank’s account in accordance with the instructions. Payments can be made in another currency based on the current rate of exchange. (All bank charges are born by the sender/customer). Payments can be made in parts as agreed.
When the date of arrival and the date of operation is confirmed and agreed upon the prepayment in the amount of 4 000,00 EUR must be made. This guarantee sum will not be refunded and will not be counted towards further payments if a patient cancels or changes the assigned date of arrival. This requirement is based on the fact that the preparation at the beginning of the lengthening program is connected with the specific expenditures (production of devices, etc.).
The sum 26 500,00 EUR (femurs) or 28 500,00 EUR (tibias) must be paid for 1 week after implantation of devices . The remainder of the TCLP 1 000,00 EUR is transferred in 1.5-2 years, 30 days prior to arrival for the removal of the devices.
The program of a stage-by-stage lengthening of hips (both femurs) and shanks (both tibias) during one stay in Ukraine takes up to 7,0 - 7.5 months. The optimum size of lengthening during this term is 11.5-12cm (7cm for femurs and 4.5-5 cm for tibias). TCLP for such program is 65 000,00 EUR. The advance payment (deposit) is 7 000,00 EUR.
40 000,00 EUR must be paid for 10 days after the implantation of devices in the first two legs segments.
16 000,00 EUR must be paid for 10 days after the implantation in the second two legs segments.
The rest of TCLP 2 000,00 EUR must be paid for 30 days prior to the arrival for removal of all devices.
