What to Do in an Emergency?
In Case of Emergency
- Contact your Israeli health provider’s call center (“Leumit”, “Clalit” or “Maccabi”) and speak to the on-call doctor or nurse. Inform them of your condition, so that they can advise on next steps.
- For Leumit call center, dial *507
- For Clalit call center, dial *2700
- For Maccabi call center, dial *3555
- We also advise to contact our Student Life Team (Madrichim), so that our team is aware and may assist you in any way we can. The Madrichim on-call number is available 24/7 for emergencies: (+972) 052-534-6188.
Emergency Room (ER) Visits
- In order to visit the ER – you will need a referral. If the healthcare provider’s medical staff (either in-person or via their call-center) decide that there is a medical emergency requiring immediate care, they will issue a referral to the ER.
- If you have referral from a medical professional, the ER visit will be covered by the insurance company.
- Otherwise, except for specific medical conditions as mentioned in the policy, an ER visit without a referral will incur a fee (ILS 970), which will not be refunded.
Alternative Emergency Care
- If you were not referred to the ER, but still need to see a medical professional during times when the clinics are closed, you may also visit the Emergency Center at Yigal Alon St. 90
- This will be at a cost of ILS 87, which will not be refunded.
