Insider tip

German academic hospitals require Vorkasse — upfront payment into escrow — before issuing the invitation letter your visa application needs. The deposit can be $20,000-$100,000+ depending on treatment. Refunds for unused amounts take 4-6 weeks post-discharge. Long-stay Type D cases (complex oncology, transplants) need a Germany-based contact person for bureaucracy.
