Health Tourism Authorisation (Turkey)
Reference only — not medical advice. See disclaimer.
Turkey's mandatory licensing scheme operated under the Ministry of Health's International Health Services Department (USHAS), requiring every clinic, hospital, and intermediary that markets to international patients to hold a Sağlık Turizmi Yetki Belgesi authorisation. The authorisation list is published on the official portal saglikturizmi.saglik.gov.tr and is the primary mechanism for verifying that a Turkish provider is permitted to treat overseas patients.
