Frequently asked questions
How do I get an appointment at AKH Vienna?

How much does treatment at AKH Vienna cost?
It depends on the tests, the treatment and the length of stay. The hospital issues an estimate after reviewing the file, and we discuss it with you before any decision.
Can my health insurer cover treatment at AKH Vienna?
AKH is a public hospital, and for planned treatment the S2 form can be used if your health insurer approves it. Read our reimbursement guide.
Do I need an interpreter?
The doctors speak German and usually English. On request we organise document translation and an interpreter for consultations.
