Common questions
Is the cost you quote the final price?
No, and anyone who tells you otherwise is being careless. What we give you is an estimate from the hospital based on the reports available before you travel. The final bill depends on what is found during treatment. What we can promise is that the estimate is itemised, that we explain exactly what is excluded, and that you are told about any change before it is incurred.

How and when do I pay?
The hospital bills you directly for treatment — we never take treatment money. A deposit is usually paid on admission and the balance on discharge. Our own coordination services are quoted separately and most are free.
How long will I need to stay in India?
It varies by procedure and is shown on each treatment page — days in hospital and total days in India, separately. As a rough guide: a stent is about twelve days, bypass surgery about three weeks, a transplant two months.
Can family travel with me?
Yes, and we recommend it. Attendant visas for up to two family members are applied for alongside yours. We arrange accommodation near the hospital for them.
Will someone meet me at the airport?
Yes. You are met at arrivals by name and taken directly to your accommodation or the hospital. Every transfer during your stay is arranged.
