Topic: First dental clinic in Budapest to accept bitcoin (Read 745 times)
Recently, information was published that Solve.Care, a blockchain-based medical services platform, will use Uber Health services, and payment will be made using cryptocurrency, including through a Care Wallet service.
Is there any information about some different clinics that accept payment in Bitcoin? It is very interesting to see how many medical institutions interact with crypto.
Hi,
not far as know, at least not in HU. However I do think, their pilot project will lead to more clinics to accept cryptos, locally. First of all, is a great marketing to them, and secondly, as time goes on, and more and more wealth created trough cryptos, the demand to use them directly, without the need to change to fiat, will grow.
Well, if Bakkt and the other ETF craps doesn't spoil it
.
Of course, I agree that there are a lot of projects on the cryptocurrency market related to medicine and all these projects are realizing their plans for using cryptocurrency in real for medical purposes. But when it comes to paying for services in medical institutions, we must understand that the circle of people who can use such services is very small. The fact is that the cryptocurrency user community is still very small.
dentcoin main agenda is to add more dental clinic to dentcoin payment adopition soon most of denatl clincs around world will come forward to accept crypto currencies as main mode of currency
I wish that in my dentistry it would be possible to pay for services with bitcoin 
I do not know much about dental treatment in Hungry but if it really starts accepting Bitcoin as payment method then indeed its a good news. Medical institutions or clinics generally do not accept crypto anywhere and country like Hungry where dental treatment is popular throughout Europe is surely a good news to share. I hope Hungarian govt does not ban it, if it goes like this, Bitcoin may be an acceptable currency at many retail points there.
"Nowadays, more than 100.000 people travel to Hungary for dental care every year. There are a few reasons why dental tourism became so popular in Hungary over the years:
Lower prices of dental procedures made Hungary the number one choice for dental patients, which made Hungarian dental tourism a highly advanced field of medicine
Despite the lower prices, the quality of dental treatments is extremely high
The privatization of dental care in the 1990ies provided increased funding for clinics, raising them to the international standards of dentistry
Since Hungary became a member of the European Union, travelling to Hungary for European citizens is incredibly easy and cheap
Patients from EU member states can require tax refunds in their home country, further reducing the cost of the treatment
Given that Hungary is a very attractive travel destination, a lot of tourists combine their holiday with a cheap dental treatment."

This is smart management. If you use crypto in addition to traditional payment methods, you can make your organization (in our case the dental clinic) special, which will attract the attention of new, rich clients and this will help to popularize Bitcoin.
I was amazed at what you call "dental tourism." Haven't heard of it before. Hungary must have the best dentists and the latest dental technologies in the world.
Anyway, the ocean is made up of tiny drops. A single dental clinic here, a small coffee shop there, a little hotel somewhere else; all these will make an ocean of businesses that accept Bitcoin. And that is how Bitcoin will conquer the world. If it is hard to get the nod up there, it will build up strength at the bottom and little by little it will become unstoppable.

Never knew this about this beautiful European country, I thought it was only famous for Nokia phone production in the early days of Nokia phones. It's good bitcoin is been accepted by dental clinics, it will further expose bitcoin to people and change their orientation about the bitcoin as against as it has been wrongly painted by the banks and mainstream media.
I don't know about hungarian economical way and hospitalities of their, but it’s definitely good news for general bitcoin holders and users.
It's great to know that Hungary is good for oral treatment. It's also good know they offering bitcoin for payment. In many country and many company already choose bitcoin as a currency. This is really great news for crypto currency. Hope other crypto currency also get their goal asap. It's just a matter of time when crypto will dominion the whole world.
Many dental clinics don't even accept card payments, so it's worth to expect that they will start accepting Bitcoins.
In my state, I never have seen a dental clinic to accept card payment. Probably I have missed but for a dental clinic, cash payment method is the best. Accepting bitcoin is a good characteristic but I guess no one will be interested to pay with bitcoin, unless it's Japan And besides dental and medical expenses are part of budgeting there’s allotted money for those so if I were to fly to Hungary from Asia(things that I sure won’t happen)atleast I will use my Fiat to pay for Thant and bitcoin will remain to my wallet.
We invested in crypto for future and dental health wasn’t part of emergency expenses that can be used by my bitcoin
Wow! People who lives there are lucky then. In my country, dental services are really expensive and only premium healthcards covers. In terms of tourism, i don't think bitcoin would help coz not everyone is fond of it.
That is interesting news, I dont see any obvious reason why they need btc payments if the dental tourism is high as it is and the prices are not very high. I would see more logic in the case when prices are very high to add BTC to get additional customers, but in any case good for them that they decided to do so.
I also agree with your opinion, that bitcoin will not change or will be able to add dental tourism, because tourism that has happened so far has been good and is going well. no need to add to payment with bitcoin anymore.
Treating teeth is quite expensive, paying with bitcoins is a good way

funnily enough with the clinic's representative in this topic not a single question was asked about their services
I guess not so many bitcoin dental tourists here
if I were to choose 6000$ in my country or 2500$ abroad , the choice would be obvious
thank god it is way cheaper here , probably beating Hungary in terms of prices too
what is good that more and more small and not so small businesses are starting to accept bitcoins
the process is slow , but I hope to live to see my groceries and a pub across the road accepting bitcoins ...
Funny you, we think deep a lot, I didn’t even actually notice that, now you see why I tell people that many people are here more in the cryptocurrency world because of the financial gain of it and not really because of its services, and this is why we are not really progressing more than this.I guess not so many bitcoin dental tourists here

Everyone wants to talk about profit, talk about when bitcoin price will rise, talk about how much money they can make, but none of them ever talk of how bitcoin can really be used to solve some of the major financial problem that our banks has put us into, and how we can get more adoption, and this is the main purpose for which the bitcoin was created which there is need for us to embrace the more If we really want the cryptocurrency technology to survive and still exist in future.

Excellent, now i would just need the airlines to accept bitcoin. Do they also pay their employees in bitcoin?
Hungary leads world's history as the country with the worst inflation ever (Pengo ftw), currently being challenged by my very own country, but still too many zeroes short. We only lost 5 zeroes in value over last year, still insignificant next to the great great Pengo.
Zimbabwe under mighty Mugabe could not defeat Hungary, Maduro will not either, his government will fall as well, as there is no Soviet Union backing. Putin doesn't count even tho he is getting lots of gold stolen from Venezuela (at the expense of the rainfall jungle) as protection money.
Whenever you need a reason for bitcoin, always remember the Pengo.
The theory of living under hyperinflation, cannot compare to its misery. If you don't believe it, come and try to live here with wages of 1 USD a month... And yet, Hungary did worse. My hat off to them, i doubt any young people living there could even imagine it, but i hope history is never forgotten.

lol . i guess all users here are not really concerned about thier teeth but they were more concerned on the status of bitcoin .kudos to this clinic for having the guts to accept and to promote bitcoin as well .
this serves as an inspiration to other business minded people or company about setting bitcoin as one of thier payment methods .
