Medical tourism in India: common questions, answered plainly
If your question is not here, send it to us. We will answer it and add it to this page if others are likely to ask.
Questions
Do you charge patients?
Yes. Our service fee is shown as a separate line on your written estimate. Medical charges are set by the hospital and billed by the hospital.
Is it safe to travel for treatment?
It depends on your condition and the procedure. Your doctor at home and the treating specialist should both agree that travel is safe for you. We will tell you if a trip does not look suitable.
Can you guarantee the result?
No. No honest provider can. Outcomes depend on your health, the procedure and the care you receive. We can tell you how to ask hospitals for their own results.
What documents do I need to send?
It depends on the treatment. Each treatment page lists what to send. In general, send diagnosis reports, scans with images, medicines and earlier hospital summaries.
How long does it take to get an estimate?
It depends on how complete your records are and how quickly the specialist replies. We will tell you what to expect when we receive your records.
Can a family member come with me?
Yes. Many patients travel with a family member. Attendants usually need their own visa, and the rules limit the number. See the visa guide.
What if I need to stay longer than planned?
Your estimate states the planned stay and what happens if more days are needed. Ask for the hospital's extra-day rate and the rules on changing your flight.
What if something goes wrong after I return home?
Keep your discharge summary and operation notes, and arrange a doctor at home who agrees to follow your care. We can help you contact the hospital team.
Does my insurance cover treatment in India?
Most national health services and many private insurers do not cover planned treatment abroad. Ask your insurer in writing before you travel.
Do you arrange surrogacy?
No. Surrogacy is not open to foreign couples in India, and we do not arrange it.
Do you arrange organ transplants?
No. We do not arrange organ transplants for international patients.
How is my information protected?
We collect only what we need for your case, and we share it with a hospital only with your consent. See the privacy section of our legal page.
