Almost everyone on our staff, especially those who have direct patient contact, must speak fluent English. We must pay higher salaries to doctors, nurses, lab technicians and others who speak English as well as their native Italian. 

We are a private clinic, as such we receive absolutely no funding or special treatment from the government regarding tax breaks. In fact Italy has one of the highest VAT in the EU.

Our clinic provides documentation in English and is coded for most international insurances. We ‘direct bill’ to over 30 different international insurance companies. Thus, our prices are geared for those people who have international insurance. None of these insurers have a problem with our prices.
