If you have chosen Confraternität & Goldenes Kreuz Private Hospital for your treat­ment, your doctor will contact our Patient Ad­missions office and make the ne­cessary reservations (bed, opera­ting room, etc.). The time of your dis­charge from hos­pital will be deci­ded by your atten­ding doctor. Once your doctor has made his/her ward visit, you may be dis­charged from the hos­pital at any time of day, and on any day of the week.

Inpatient admission

When you arrive for your hospital stay, please go to the Ad­mission Office first. This is on the first floor (opposite the reception desk). Once you have com­pleted the formali­ties at Recep­tion, one of our staff mem­bers will take you to the ad­missions ward, or to the ward you are booked into. Before your hospital stay, please ask your doctor if you need to be in a fasted state on the day you are ad­mitted (i.e. have an empty sto­mach).

Please bring the following when you are admitted
  • Photo ID
  • e-card or social security number
  • Policy number for your Austrian supplemen­tary health in­surance, or supplemen­tary in­surance card.
    Before your stay, please contact your in­surance adviser to clarify whether or not your policy pro­vides full cover.
  • If your policy is pro­vided by a non-Austrian insurer, please pro­vide con­firmation of coverage, or a security deposit.
    A security de­posit must be paid in ad­vance by all patients without private supplemen­tary health in­surance.
  • A signed copy of our Inpatient admission agreement (this in­cludes the essential terms and con­ditions for your ad­mission to our hospital, and treat­ment here).
  • A signed copy of our Data Protection Statement
    (for further information, please see our in­formation sheet on data processing)
  • Childbirth admissions: a completed copy of our Childbirth record form
Medical records
  • All relevant previous medical findings and lab results
  • Recent X-ray images
  • Blood group ID card (parti­cularly mothers)
  • Diabetic ID card
  • Vaccination certifi­cate
  • Allergy ID card
  • Mother-child health passport, if you are being ad­mitted for delivery
  • Any medica­tions you take regularly

If you have any questions about costs, please contact our Billing team who will be happy to help.
