According to the information provided by the Medicover Hospital in Warsaw, from now on Bitcoin payments to this facility will be possible thanks to the cooperation with InPay S.A. Medicover is the first hospital in Europe which accepts bitcoin payments for hospitalizations, consultations and health screenings. We decided to cooperate with InPay because it allows to process these transactions in a very simple and transparent way, similar to credit card payments. One of the most attractive solutions that InPay provides is the lack of risk associated with changes in the Bitcoin exchange rate at the time of payment by the patient and the implementation of the service. This makes Bitcoin safe for both patients and the Hospital," says Tucson Dunn, Director of Hospital Development for Medicover Group. We have created a full price list of hospital services expressed in Polish zlotys, which is based on the pricing system for services recommended by the International Health Commission. When making a payment with bitcoins, the rate is determined at the moment of the transaction according to the rate determined at that moment by InPay. We intend to start with the promotion of the Men's Health Screening, which as of today is worth about 5.40 BTC (6900 PLN or 2000 $)" says Marcelina Szyszka, Project Coordinator at Medicover Hospital.
