Apollo Hospitals in India

Apollo's specialist team can review your case and provide a full treatment plan with the following:

• Most recent MRI, CT, ultrasound, or X-ray (DICOM format preferred; reports accepted)
• Biopsy or pathology reports where relevant
• Previous surgical or procedure discharge summaries
• Blood tests including liver function, kidney function, and full blood count
• Cardiac reports or echocardiogram for heart conditions
• Current medication list with dosages

Once received, the relevant Apollo specialist reviews the case and provides a treatment recommendation, hospital and specialist match, and written cost estimate.

Stay duration depends on your procedure and recovery. As a general guide:

• Knee or hip replacement: 10 to 14 days
• Cardiac bypass (CABG): 12 to 16 days
• Kidney transplant: 3 to 5 weeks
• Liver transplant: 4 to 6 weeks inpatient, followed by outpatient monitoring
• Bone marrow transplant: 6 to 8 weeks
• Cancer surgery: 10 to 21 days

Apollo works with several international insurers including Bupa International, Cigna Global, Allianz Care, AXA Partners, and Aetna International, though direct billing depends on the procedure type and hospital branch.

For international patients:

• Share your insurer name and policy number with the My 1Health team before travelling
• The team confirms whether direct billing is available at your specific Apollo hospital for your procedure
• If direct billing is unavailable, Apollo provides itemised invoices for reimbursement claims
• A written cost estimate is provided before you travel regardless of insurance status

Apollo is the first choice for international patients from these regions because it offers procedures unavailable locally or with significantly longer waiting times, at costs 60 to 80% lower than the UK, USA, or Germany.

Key reasons:

• Apollo Proton Cancer Centre Chennai is the only proton therapy facility in South Asia and the Middle East
• World's busiest solid organ transplant programme since 2013 with 25,700+ transplants completed
• 8 JCI-accredited hospitals, the same standard applied in the USA, Germany, and Singapore
• Patients from 150+ countries treated annually, meaning logistics, language, and cultural needs are established practice

The International patient support team coordinates appointments, consultations, and treatment planning at Apollo Hospitals for patients from abroad.
