How to finance the cost of medical treatment abroad

Treatment abroad may be the only option to combat some diseases. But what about the cost of the best treatment abroad? Unfortunately, it is completely unaffordable for a large number of people. Financing the cost of medical treatment abroad can be the number one challenge, leading many sufferers to decide against seeking a cure in another country. But you shouldn't actually give up in any case! If you carefully plan the alternatives to finance the best treatment for your respective ailment abroad, they can cover all the medical bills without the patient and his relatives having to worry about the financial part of the treatment. The best option is to opt for setting up a charity campaign. If you or a loved one is in need of treatment abroad, feel free to visitPavelAndreev.ORG and share the story.

What do we need to know when we want to create a campaign for treatment and rehabilitation?

Fundraising for cancer treatment

Cancer patients need the best specialists and modern treatment methods to improve their lives and be healthy again. Use the creation of a donation campaign to cover the cost of cancer treatment abroad. Chemotherapy and other treatment-related procedures may be out of reach for the average Bulgarian family. But then how can these people get the basic treatment from the best oncologist in a foreign country without feeling the financial burden? The solution is charity fundraising for cancer treatment.

In the fundraising process, the cancer patient or their relatives are approached by prospective donors, most often through online campaigns for financial support. People make donations according to their personal means and thus help to pay for cancer treatment abroad.

Here are a few tips to help you raise as much as possible for the cost of cancer treatment abroad:

  • The donor should listen to the patient's story.

Patients may feel terrible physically and mentally at such a time and not be able to tell their story. However, the presentation should be as convincing as possible and so it is better in such a situation to have a friend or relative write it.

  • Choose the title carefully.

Write a headline that will get the attention of donors. Inform them about the patient's current condition and the treatment needed. When they identify with the problem, they will be more inclined to donate.

  • Add relevant photos and make the most of social media profiles.

For this, post the story on our website for donations. We offer a "Share" option so you can easily promote it on social media afterwards. Ask as many people as possible to share your story too.

Fundraising for emergency operations

Many serious illnesses require emergency operations. When they are specific, they often need to be performed overseas. If these operations are not carried out, the illnesses are capable of having a devastating impact on patients and their families. In some cases, however, the cost of treatment can be high and even prohibitive. Sometimes patients have the option of choosing to travel abroad for treatment in order to gain access to the most innovative therapies, but there are also diseases for which no treatment is available at all in this country.

A number of unknowns arise when travelling abroad for emergency surgery. The first thing you should do is set up a fundraising campaign at the Pavel Andreev Foundation - this will ensure that securing funding for the treatment is all up and running. We often say that money is not the most important thing. Sadly, however, when it comes to life-saving medical treatment we put them first - in their absence treatment is completely impossible.

Creating and organising a charity campaign for emergency treatment abroad

We at PavelAndreevoffer you tips on setting up and organising a charity campaign for emergency treatment abroad:

  • Start by creating a charity campaign on our donation site PavelAndreev.ORG.
  • Post the story in as many places as possible on the web with a link to the fundraising campaign.
  • Get the patient's family, friends, colleagues, well-wishers and acquaintances to share the campaign on social media.
  • Connect with as many people as possible through email, text messages and phone calls. Patients and their loved ones can connect with donors in person through this type of communication, and then it's very likely they'll decide to help.
  • Show appreciation to everyone who has made a donation to the cause and be consistent with updates.

Email is one of the most effective ways to raise awareness for your fundraising campaign.You can use these fundraising email templates.

Charity campaign to raise funds for the treatment of children abroad

Illness is a terrible thing and there are many people with good hearts who are always willing to help with whatever they can to those in financial difficulty due to medical problems. However, when it comes to children, then it is even sadder and there are even more people willing to donate. With the right and timely treatment, patients can get rid of the disease and lead a normal life. In need of emergency medical care, all that matters is that the child gets better. Having enough money for unexpected medical bills or to fund a trip abroad for medical treatment is crucial.

But what happens if the family doesn't have the money needed? The best possible option remains to organize a charity campaign to raise funds for the treatment of children abroad. In order to start the campaign, it is good to properly determine the target amount. Research the upcoming expenses well and start fundraising on pavel andreev.

Take a look at our Children Abroad Treatment Fund and the children we have been able to support through it.

PAVEL ANDREEV Children's Treatment Fund

The representatives of our foundation know well how important it is to provide financial support for the treatment of children in a timely manner. Sometimes a fundraising campaign can last for months or even years, and as we know in such situations time is most precious and can sometimes be costly!

It is for this reason that on our donation site, Pavel Andreev has set up the special Children's Treatment Fund, which is used to help children who need urgent medical treatment abroad or outside the country. The goal of the fund is to grow to the point where there is enough money to be disbursed to children in need to be used in crisis situations when funds from fundraisers run low or to pay for an organ transplant.

Using the PavelAndreev.ORG platform to raise money for treatment abroad will achieve much better results. If you post your story with us, it will reach many people and you will have the opportunity to raise money from friends, family and complete strangers with kind hearts.
