Everything was great. They got a little confused with the time of admission (it was not possible to find out whether it was from the side of the clinic or Bookimed), and since the clinic is in another city, it was difficult to immediately adjust their plans. In the end, everything ended well. Thank)

FAQ about Epilepsy Treatment in Israel

What does determine the epilepsy treatment cost?

The epilepsy treatment cost depends on what therapeutic method a patient will undergo — medication therapy or surgery.

Before prescribing the therapy, an epileptologist carry out a complete examination of a patient. For example, specialists in the Teknon Epilepsy Institute provide electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring for 3 days.

During the procedure, a patient receives antiepileptic drugs. The doctor can immediately track the effect of drugs on the brain, replace it or adjust the dose. If the drugs do not work, an epileptologist send a patient for the surgery.

What method of epilepsy treatment cost higher?

70% of people with epilepsy receive medication treatments. The medication treatment cost is rather lower than surgery, because there is no intervention. However, a patient have to buy the drugs after they run out.

What does the epilepsy surgery cost depend on?

The epilepsy surgery cost depends on:

  • type of surgery
  • kind of technology
  • location of clinic
  • experience of a surgeon.

What does affect the epilepsy surgery cost most of all?

What is the epilepsy surgery cost? — one of the most crucial questions for people requiring this treatment option.

  • price policy within the state
  • hospital brand recognition
  • neurosurgeon's experience
