Home / International patients

One coordinator, from your first email to your flight home.

Patients from 40 countries travel to Sahana each year for cardiac, orthopaedic, transplant and cancer care. Here is exactly how it works.

What your coordinator arranges

A treatment plan and itemised estimate within 48 hours of receiving your reports
Medical visa invitation letter for you and up to two companions
Airport pickup from Chennai International (MAA) and drop-off
Interpreters for Arabic, Bengali, French, Swahili, Sinhala and Russian
Serviced apartments within a 10-minute walk, from ₹3,500 a night
Forex, Indian SIM card and FRRO registration help at the lounge
Video follow-ups with your consultant after you return home

The process

Send your reports
Email or WhatsApp scans and prescriptions. A consultant reviews them, not a sales team.
Get a plan and estimate
Within 48 hours: diagnosis opinion, recommended treatment, length of stay and cost in USD and INR.
Travel
We issue the visa letter, confirm admission and meet you at the airport.
Treatment and follow-up
Your coordinator visits daily. After discharge, reports and video reviews continue online.

Final estimates depend on your reports. Packages include surgeon, theatre, room, medicines and standard implants.
