What APIS Does Not Decide
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
APIS coordinates communication and document submission for selected international patients, but it does not make medical decisions.
APIS does not decide:
- Diagnosis
- Treatment eligibility
- Whether particle therapy is appropriate
- Which treatment should be performed
- Whether a hospital will accept the patient
- Whether travel is medically safe
- Treatment outcome or expected survival
- Urgent medical management or emergency care
These decisions require review by qualified medical professionals and treating hospitals.
APIS also does not represent itself as a hospital or as a substitute for the patient’s own physician.
Even when APIS helps submit records to a Korean hospital, the hospital may request additional documents, recommend a different department, decline further review, or conclude that treatment in Korea is not appropriate.
This distinction is important for international patients and families.
Coordination can help make the process clearer, but it cannot replace medical judgment.
APIS helps organize the communication process so that patients and families can understand what information is needed and whether further hospital review may be possible.
* Final treatment decisions are determined solely by the treating hospitals and physicians.
