What the title covered – and what it did not

It covered:

  • Bookimed as a medical travel coordinator – the services a patient receives from the first inquiry to follow-up after treatment, as assessed by Temos.
  • The years 2023–2025, the same period as Bookimed's Temos accreditation.

It did not cover:

  • The clinics on Bookimed. Clinics hold their own accreditations, such as JCI or ISO, and remain responsible for treatment.
  • A separate audit by the Diplomatic Council. The assessment was done by Temos International.
