GCR Score – what it is?
First of all, the GCR Score is a unique algorithm that predicts the expected quality standard of any particular medical clinic, or group of clinics within a town, country, or worldwide. It measures clinics based on countless data around the 4 following pillars:
- GCR Expertise Score – the range and quality & experience of medical expertise (doctors) that a clinic provides to its patients
- GCR Facilities Score – the range and quality of medical / non-medical facilities and technology (devices) that a clinic provides to its patients
- GCR Services Score – the range and quality of medical / non-medical procedures, services and amenities that a clinic provides its patients with
- GCR Feedback Score – the amount and quality of past patient treatment reviews available to the public on independent online sources
When a clinic is GCR Internationally Accredited, it means that it has met / exceeded the level of international healthcare standards for each of these pillars (the overall GCR Score must be above 3.00 out of 5.00 maximum). With that said, these clinics have been individually verified and assessed by the GCR expert team as well as have been recognized for their commitment to international standards.
What it means to patients?
In the past it has been difficult to give absolute guidance on what constitutes a “good” medical clinic since private medical care is a highly personalized interaction between the patient and medical team and varies in degrees of complexity.
Instead of having a simple estimate of clinics’ quality by your past experience, recommendations from a friend or family member, or reading online reviews only, our GCR Accreditation Experts do a rigorous check of accredited clinics in all areas that make up their GCR Score, so that this quality standard is the correct representation of the clinic. It’s the added and fact-based assurance, that you need to make sure about, when you’re making the right decision in your choice of clinic you want to be treated at.
