COVID-19 Testing

Patients and their attendants have to carry a COVID-19 PCR report from their local country before boarding the flight.The COVID-19 test should be done within 72 hours before the departure of the flight.

A COVID-19 PCR test will be performed at the airport of the destination country or at the hospital where you plan to seek treatment (whichever approach has been decided by the Ministry of Health of the respective country)

Some countries still have a quarantine timeframe of two weeks for all visitors.Therefore,you are requested to check with the person you are in touch with about quarantine requirements so that you can plan finances and other logistics accordingly.

Certain countries let you take an exemption for COVID-19 PCR testing at the airport.A prior declaration form needs to be filled for that. To check if it is applicable for you,kindly check with your patient care management.

A COVID-19 PCR test is done for the patient and attendants before their departure to the home country.The COVID-19 test should be done within 72 hours before the departure of the flight.

Until the PCR report comes, you will have to remain in isolation before treatment can be started at the hospital

A COVID-19 PCR test is done 2 days before the scheduled procedure for the patient.

Airport Pick-up and Local Transport

All passengers must follow the social distancing norms at immigrations and baggage pick-up belts.

A chauffeur with a placard-carrying your name will be standing outside the airport.

You will be picked up in a fully sanitized cab with a driver wearing a face covering or a mask.
