EP. 08 — When Something Serious Happens: Navigating Hospitals and Specialists Abroad
-

Most healthcare abroad is routine. But when something serious happens — a hospitalisation, a specialist diagnosis, a procedure that can't wait — the gaps in the system become much harder to manage.
In this episode, James and Claire cover emergency versus planned serious care, how referral systems work differently across countries (and why bypassing them can cost you even with insurance), how to find the right specialist when you don't have years of local knowledge, and how to get a second opinion — including what records you need, in what format, and how to use a previous specialist abroad to open doors in a new country.
Prepare before you need it. The middle of a crisis is not the time to start.
