WELCOME TO CHR DE LA HAUTE SENNE

Please check into our hospital a little earlier than the appointed time as requested. You or a member of your family will be asked to provide information and to complete some documents.

For patient coming from the SHAPE, we would like to remind that :

• All SHAPE patients covered by Prime (US active duty, family members of US active duty) should have a referral letter (order request) from their doctor at SHAPE and should have an AUTHORIZATION FORM from International SOS at each visit.
  These are available at the SHAPE Healthcare Facilities (Rue d’Athènes, 401 – 7010 SHAPE – 065.32.53.24 - referral managment).
• SHAPE British patients should have a referral letter from the UK clinic (Please contact Corine Bausier at the UK Clinic – 065.442.071). See annexe
• All other SHAPE patients should fill out a registration form (see annexe 4) the first time they come at the C.H.R. de la Haute Senne, confirming contact details and insurance. These are available at the front desk. If you are from the European Union and if you are registered with a Belgian Mutuality, please bring with you a copy of your insurance certificate mentioning the validity period. If you will be leaving Belgium, fill another registration form at your last visit to the hospital including forwarding address for results and bills.
