Booking Health

What Booking Health does

Booking Health GmbH is a Germany-based international medical tourism coordinator, founded around 2013 and headquartered in the Bonn/Remagen area, that routes patients from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, the Middle East, Scandinavia, the Baltics, and elsewhere to certified clinics in Germany and other European countries. The platform's core product is a medical case matching and treatment coordination service: patients submit diagnoses and medical files through a multilingual website (English, Russian, Arabic), receive a personalized telephone consultation from a Booking Health medical advisor within minutes to hours, and are presented with an individual medical program — including clinic selection, treatment plan, and logistics — typically within 48 hours. The coordination stack bundles clinical program development, independent hospital selection based on verified outcome statistics rather than paid referral relationships, visa and travel logistics, 24/7 multilingual personal coordinators, fixed-price guarantees, €200,000 complication insurance, and 12 months of free post-treatment medical follow-up. The service portfolio spans oncology-heavy treatments (dendritic cell therapy, PSMA radioligand therapies with Lutetium-177 and Actinium-225, TACE, HIPEC, PIPAC, CyberKnife, proton therapy, immunotherapy, stem cell therapy), surgical programs (da Vinci, cryosurgery), diagnostics/check-ups, and rehabilitation, delivered through partnerships with tertiary-care centers such as University Hospital Munich, University Hospital Ulm, Asklepios Hospital Barmbek, Helios Hospital Berlin-Buch, Martini-Klinik Hamburg, and Hannover Medical School. Booking Health GmbH operates as a privately held, self-funded company with no disclosed institutional funding; it monetizes primarily through package pricing embedded in treatment programs arranged with partner hospitals, charges described as coordination/transaction fees rather than separate commissions, and reaches patients through content marketing (blog, YouTube, SEO), localized regional sites, the CareForward community initiative, and a certified channel partnership with Medexpert Consulting GmbH. The company markets itself as the first and only TÜV-certified (ISO 9001:2015) medical tourism coordinator worldwide, claims 100,000+ patients advised over ten years, and carries a 4.9/5 Google rating.
