Can I bring a companion?
Traveling for medical treatment can feel daunting, but Quality Care Global (QCG) supports you in bringing a companion for comfort and assistance. We help coordinate with providers and guide you through the process to ensure a smooth experience. Here’s what you need to know about bringing a companion.
Can I bring a companion?
Yes, most providers on QCG’s platform allow companions, such as family members or friends, to accompany you during your medical trip. Companions can provide emotional support, help with logistics, or assist with recovery, depending on your needs and the provider’s policies.
How QCG helps with companions
We make it easy to plan for your companion:
- Provider coordination: After booking an appointment (see our virtual consultations guide), we connect you with your provider to confirm their companion policies, such as accommodation or visitation rules.
- Travel guidance: Our team offers advice on visas, travel arrangements, or local accommodations for your companion, tailored to your destination.
- 24/7 support: Have questions? Submit a contact form at qualitycareglobal.com/contact or request a callback via “Match Me Now” at qualitycareglobal.com. We respond within 24 hours.
Steps to plan for a companion
- Choose your provider: Browse providers at qualitycareglobal.com or get recommendations via our survey, no account needed.
- Confirm with the provider: Create an account at qualitycareglobal.com/register to message providers about companion policies. Returning users, sign in at qualitycareglobal.com/login. Providers typically reply within 1–2 business days.
- Arrange travel: Coordinate your companion’s travel, including flights and accommodations. See our visa applications guide for visa help.
- Ask QCG for assistance: Contact us at qualitycareglobal.com/contact for guidance on logistics or provider-specific rules.
Tips for traveling with a companion
- Check provider policies: Some providers may limit companion access during procedures or require advance notice.
- Plan visas early: Ensure your companion has the necessary visa, which may differ from a medical visa (see our visa applications guide).
- Consider costs: Companions may incur additional travel or accommodation expenses, which QCG can help you estimate through provider communication.
- Save details: With an account, favorite provider messages or travel plans for easy reference.
