In the Republic of Tajikistan, only medical services related to emergency medical care are provided free of charge to foreign citizens (in particular, in case of sudden acute diseases that threaten the life of the patient and the health of others, accidents, poisoning, injuries, etc.).

State medical institutions provide medical assistance to foreign citizens. Acceptance of a foreign citizen for treatment is reported to the organization where he works, as well as to the management of the medical institution. Medical records for foreign patients are kept in the state language, but the diagnosis and prescribed drugs are recorded in Russian or Latin.

Services that do not fall under the definition of urgent care are paid. The costs are borne by the inviting party if the foreign citizen does not have a health insurance policy. Tariffs for medical services are applied in accordance with the price list approved by the relevant resolution of the Government of Tajikistan. The social package in Tajikistan is standard and does not provide for the provision of separate services for foreigners.

Health insurance policy.

Usually, the insurance policy covers the following costs:

• medical expenses: for treating acute diseases or injuries and appropriate medications prescribed by a doctor. Medical expenses do not cover general treatment, dental services, aesthetic and psychological consultations, or treatment of previously suffered (chronic) diseases;
• transport costs: evacuation of the insured from the scene of the incident to the nearest medical institution or to a doctor; emergency medical repatriation of the insured, including escort (if a doctor offers such escort) across the border to his place of residence.

Medical expenses are paid by the insurance company directly to the medical institution or reimbursed to the insured person if the expenses are paid independently. In the case of self-payment of medical services, it is necessary to agree on reimbursement of costs with the service center before receiving medical assistance. In order to receive reimbursement within 30 days after returning from the trip, you must provide the insurance company with documents that confirm and justify all medical expenses.

Medical tourism is not very developed in the country, but tourists can get sanatorium treatment in Tajikistan.
