TL;DR
Contact your insurer first: if the treatment is covered, they’ll tell you which clinic in Batumi to use. If it’s not covered and you only need something simple like a dressing change, you can go to a large hospital such as BAU International Hospital and pay at reception.
For planned treatment with insurance, the usual process is to choose a clinic first and then ask your insurer to approve treatment there. Once they confirm, the clinic can register the visit as partially covered by insurance.
If you have an insurance policy, check with the insurer first to see whether the treatment is covered. If it is, they will direct you to the appropriate clinic or hospital in Batumi.
If insurance does not cover the case and you only need basic help such as a dressing change, a practical option is BAU International Hospital. You can go straight to reception, explain what you need, and pay out of pocket.
For minor injuries such as re-bandaging fingers, you usually don’t need a highly specialized clinic — a major hospital in Batumi can handle it without a complicated booking process, and the cost is generally manageable.
