Information for Ukrainian patients requiring treatment in Romania

Myeloma Euronet Romania is a Patients organization  advocating for better treatments and care for myeloma patients .

We strongly believe that all patients should have access to the best treatment and care, no matter where they live.

We are  here to support Ukrainian patients during this ongoing crisis.

If you are a myeloma patient in Ukraine or a refugee in Romania in need of information on how to access treatment and support, please contact us at viorica@myeloma.ro

This is information for Ukrainian myeloma patients who need access to healthcare in Romania.

It has been written using public information given by Romanian health authorities and other institutions in charge with Ukrainian refugees

If you need assistance or have a specific question about receiving treatment and care in Romania, please email viorica@myeloma.ro

Will treatment for myeloma be covered in Romania?

The Romanian Ministry of Health and National Health Insurance House have both issued statements confirming that Ukrainian citizens will have access to healthcare in Romania.

Ukrainian myeloma  patients should expect to have the same access to healthcare as Romanian citizens.

You can find the statement from the Ministry of Health here https://cnas.ro/

Press Releases – Information

.The Ministry of Health organized, through the public health directorates of the counties on the border with Ukraine and neighboring counties, mobile medical teams to conduct epidemiological triage and assess the health of refugees in camps organized by DSU and ensure their testing for COVID19.

People who will need medical assistance will be directed to the health units in the area. Access to health services for Ukrainian citizens is similar to that for Romanian citizens and is based on existing conventions.

The company Antibiotice SA, in the patrimony of the Ministry of Health, has already sent to Ukraine, through the SIRET border crossing, oral and injectable antibiotics for 5000 patients.

Currently, the Ministry of Health is centralizing requests for sanitary equipment and materials from Ukraine to honor them in the near future.

The list of hospitals where Ukrainian wounded will receive medical care is also being drawn up.

A special Order of the President of the National Health Insurance House (127/2022) confirmed the procedure by which Ukrainian citizens can access medical services in Romania. Ukrainian citizens will benefit from healthcare, medical supplies, medical devices and services on the same level as Romanian citizens.

This statement applies to Ukrainian citizens who have a border crossing document that has been accepted by the Romanian state.

Patients will be given a unique identification number so the costs will be covered by the healthcare system. You can see this announcement here https://cnas.ro/

What hospitals in Romania will treat myeloma and AL amyloidosis patients?

Ukrainian myeloma patients can access any healthcare provider or hospital they require in Romania.

You can search for hospitals that provide treatment for these conditions here.

How can I receive hospital treatment in Romania?

The Ministry of Health has organised mobile teams to conduct epidemiological triage and assess the health of refugees in camps and ensure their testing for COVID-19.

People in need of medical care are referred to local health facilities including hospitals.

As this may not always happen, it is important that patients make themselves known to officials as soon as possible when they enter the country so that care can be arranged.

In some situations (such as patients currently being treated in the hospital), where possible, Ukrainian haematology doctors can liaise directly with Romanian hospitals to arrange a smooth transition of patients across the border and into the hospital.

If you are still able to contact and speak to the doctor that treated you in Ukraine, we advise you to do so to understand the assistance they can provide.

A patient who is already undergoing treatment, can go directly to the closest hospital or an outpatient care centre.

A referral is not needed, patients just require their ID / passport / border documentation.

They should also bring their medical notes if they have them.

Note that the availability of cancer treatment might be different to that in Ukraine.

A healthcare professional will be able to tell you about the availability of myeloma drugs in Romania.

If there is a specific situation you need assistance with, please email viorica@myeloma.ro

Where can I find help for medical translations?

It might be difficult for some patients to communicate with healthcare officials and doctors in the local language.

This is made particularly difficult by the medical language used in healthcare.

Romanian doctors and other healthcare professionals may also find it difficult to understand a Ukrainian patient’s medical notes.

In case of need, please email viorica@myeloma.ro

What myeloma patient organisations are available in Romania?

Myeloma Euronet Romania (MER)
Website: www.myeloma.ro
Email: viorica@myeloma.ro  / office@myeloma.ro
