Q. How long is a typical hospital stay?
Stay length varies by patient condition. For mild conditions, 1–2 weeks of intensive inpatient treatment followed by outpatient care is common. For severe conditions or stays beyond 2 weeks, long-term hospitalization is available. For traffic accidents, stay length depends on the injury status.
📝 Detailed Answer
It differs by state and by type of insurance.
In the case of admission after a traffic accident, it is set according to the degree of injury and the motor insurance criteria, and it is not possible to be admitted indefinitely.
The cases where admission is needed are generally where the pain is severe or moving about is difficult to a degree where outpatient treatment cannot manage it.
After the consultation we look at your state and tell you whether admission is appropriate or outpatient care is enough. If it is not necessary, we do not recommend admission.
If your state improves during admission, we switch to outpatient care.
