FAQs

Why do I get an invoice if I am enrolled in AscendisMed?

The enrollment fee you paid grants access to our service infrastructure. Specifically, it covers the Case Facilitator, the State-of-the-Art Operating Rooms, Ambulances, and ICU – AscendisMed maintains its best-in-the-region infrastructure from the enrollment fee (and by never profit-taking).

Will my insurance company cover the enrollment expenses?

While AscendisMed/MRDCi is on every International Insurance panel – most insurance companies do not pay the enrollment fee.

What does ‘medical care at the international standard’ mean?

The international standard is found in three different sectors:

  1. Literature (Every doctor has access to Up-To-Date service that informs doctors what is considered the standard in the US).
  2. Continuing Education Courses for all Ascendis doctors are required – including attending specialty-specific conferences as often as possible.
  3. Every patient contact involves a Western-trained doctor directly or indirectly through oversight.
