Accreditation Body

Temos International Healthcare Accreditation

A Germany-based international accreditation organization focused on health care quality and international patient services.

Temos International Healthcare Accreditation is a Germany-based accreditation organization that evaluates health care providers and related services for quality, patient safety, international patient management, and non-clinical service quality.

It is relevant to medical tourism because several Temos programs are built around international patient care, medical tourism, dental tourism, reproductive care, rehabilitation, and medical travel coordination.

What Temos Does

Temos describes its accreditation work as a voluntary, evidence-based assessment system for hospitals, clinics, outpatient centers, practices, and medical travel coordinators. Its programs are tailored to different types of organizations and services rather than using one generic model for every provider.

Temos has accreditation programs for areas such as:

Why It Matters For Medical Tourism

Medical tourism is not only about the operating room. It also depends on patient communication, coordination, records transfer, travel timing, non-clinical support, and follow-up planning.

Temos is notable because its standards explicitly address international patient management and non-clinical services alongside medical quality topics. That makes it useful when researching clinics or facilitators that serve cross-border patients.

ISQua/IEEA Recognition

Temos states that it holds accreditation through ISQua EEA programs, including standards and organizational accreditation related to medical tourism, dental care, surveyor training, and quality in medical care.

For patients, this means Temos can be considered within the broader international accreditation ecosystem. It still does not mean every Temos-accredited organization is the right fit for every patient.

What Patients Should Verify

If a clinic or facilitator claims Temos accreditation:

  1. Confirm the claim through Temos or the provider’s current accreditation documentation.
  2. Identify the exact program, such as dental care, rehabilitation, reproductive care, or international patient care.
  3. Check whether the location and service match the planned treatment.
  4. Ask whether the credential covers medical services, non-clinical coordination, or both.
  5. Ask what follow-up support is available after returning home.
