MEDICAL TOURISM IN INDIA

For international patients traveling to India, the surgery is often the easy part. You trust the surgeon, and you trust the hospital. But what about the journey in between?

The most vulnerable moments in medical tourism occur outside the operating room—during the transfer from the airport to the hospital, or between cities. In the past, this "transit gap" was a gray area of safety.

At Namaste Cure, we don't believe in gray areas.

That is why we are proud to announce our preferred partnership with RED.Health, the first and only medical transport company in Asia to achieve JCI (Joint Commission International) Accreditation.

Here is why this "Gold Seal" matters for your journey, and why we refuse to use anyone else.

What Does "JCI Accredited" Actually Mean?

You may know JCI as the badge held by the world’s top hospitals (like Mayo Clinic). But for an ambulance fleet to earn this, they must pass over 1,200 rigorous measurable elements.

When Namaste Cure books a RED.Health ambulance for you, we aren't just booking a ride. We are booking a mobile clinical environment that meets American safety standards.

1. It’s a Hospital on Wheels, Not just a Taxi.

Most standard ambulances in India are transport vehicles. A JCI-accredited ambulance is different:

  • The Equipment: Every vehicle is an Advanced Life Support (ALS) unit, equipped with calibrated ventilators, defibrillators, and 5G-enabled monitoring systems that transmit your vitals to the hospital before you arrive.

  • The Hygiene: Infection control protocols are audited. For immunocompromised patients (e.g., organ transplant recipients), this sterile environment is non-negotiable.

2. The "Golden Hour" Guarantee

Time anxiety is real for patients landing in a new country.

  • The Standard: RED.Health’s technology ensures a 2-second call response time.

  • The Tracking: Just as we track your flight, Namaste Cure and your family can track your ambulance in real-time. We eliminate the question, "Where is the driver?"

3. Seamless Air-to-Road Transfers

For our clients arriving via Air Ambulance or commercial stretchers: The transition from the tarmac to the road is critical. RED.Health’s tarmac access and specialized "Bed-to-Bed" transfer protocols ensure you are never disconnected from life support, even for a second.

Why Namaste Cure Chose This Partner?

At Namaste Cure, we audited dozens of logistics providers before settling on one.

As a doctor-led company, Dr. Avinash (Founder, Namaste Cure) understands that patient outcomes depend on the Continuum of Care.

"We cannot offer world-class surgery and then transport our clients in unmatched, vehicles. By partnering with RED.Health, Namaste Cure ensures that your safety bubble remains unbroken from the moment you land in India until you reach your hospital bed, and back to the airport."

We don't just sign partners; we vet them against global benchmarks. If they don't have the "Gold Seal," they don't carry our patients.

The "Namaste Promise"

When you book your medical travel with us, this premium safety standard is included.

  • Zero Compromise: We do not use third-party aggregators. We use Asia's only JCI-accredited fleet.

  • Airport Tarmac Access: VIP reliable transfer for critical patients.

  • Multilingual Paramedics: Staff trained to communicate with international patients.

Traveling for surgery is a brave decision. We honor that bravery by ensuring your ride is as safe as your procedure.
