FAQ

Everything you
need to know today

Browse through these common inquiries to better understand our patient-focused medical platform.

Yes, we work with a variety of insurance providers. Contact our team to verify your coverage.

Yes, we provide secure online consultations with experienced specialists.

Our care coordinators help match you with the most suitable specialist.

Absolutely. Your medical information is protected according to healthcare privacy standards.

Look at six things: accreditation (JCI or NABH), specialty depth, doctor credentials and experience, procedure-specific success rates, international patient support, and technology. DivinHeal's AI-driven matching evaluates every hospital in our accredited partner network on these dimensions and shortlists the best-fit options for your condition, budget, and country.

JCI (Joint Commission International) is the US-based global gold standard for hospital quality, recognised worldwide. NABH is India's national accreditation — accredited by ISQua, the same body that accredits JCI. Both signal independently verified safety and quality. Most of India's leading hospitals hold both.

Yes. All three welcome international patients through structured medical visa programs. India is the most established, treating patients from Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia at 60–80% lower cost. Thailand leads in cosmetic and dental care. The UAE is emerging in oncology and reproductive medicine.

Most patients save 50–80% on treatment costs. Heart bypass costs US $7,000–9,000 in India compared to $70,000–150,000 in the US. IVF costs $3,000–4,500 compared to $12,000–20,000 in the UK. Even after flights, visa, and accommodation, total savings remain 60–70%.

DivinHeal manages your entire non-medical journey: visa invitation letters, medical visa guidance, doctor appointments, teleconsultations, airport pickup, hospital-vetted accommodation for you and your attendant, language interpreters, local transport, cuisine preferences, and post-treatment follow-up — one dedicated coordinator from first enquiry to final follow-up.

You need a valid passport (6+ months validity), a medical visa (M-Visa for India — DivinHeal provides the hospital invitation letter), return flight tickets, recent medical reports and a doctor's referral, current prescription list, and proof of financial means. Any accompanying attendant needs their own passport and MX-Visa.
