The US has the most expensive healthcare in the world. 100 million Americans carry medical debt. For many, flying to India and back — including surgery at a JCI hospital — costs less than their deductible.
Medical travel expenses — including transportation and lodging up to $50/night — qualify for HSA and FSA reimbursement under IRS rules. HealPath Global provides documentation for all eligible expenses. This is a significant advantage for HDHP patients with accumulated HSA balances.
HealPath Global earns no commission from hospitals. Our only revenue is your concierge fee. That structural independence is what makes our verification real.
We cross-check every hospital's accreditation status directly at jointcommissioninternational.org — not from the hospital's own website. Date, scope, and any conditional findings are documented.
We verify NABH status via nabh.co — India's national hospital accreditation administered by the Quality Council of India. Top hospitals hold both JCI and NABH simultaneously.
Direct contact with the hospital's IPD to verify English-speaking coordinators, established international protocols, transparent pricing, and communication quality.
MCI registration, USMLE or PLAB qualifications for Western training, PubMed publication history, current hospital privileges, and active surgical practice — all verified independently.
Accreditation status is re-checked every quarter. Annual review of patient outcome data where published. Continuous monitoring via direct patient follow-up with permission.
Every patient receives the hospital's JCI accreditation number before signing anything — and is actively encouraged to verify it themselves.
Verify JCI AccreditationEvery patient receives a full verification packet before signing any agreement. We actively encourage patients to verify everything themselves before making any decision or payment.
Submit your records securely. We identify 2–3 JCI-accredited hospitals appropriate for your procedure, with full surgeon CVs and itemized quotes.
You receive the hospital's JCI accreditation number to verify independently. Once you choose, we confirm the quote in writing in your Service Agreement.
Visa documentation, flight recommendations, 4-star accommodation near the hospital, pre-departure briefing, airport transfers, and on-call support throughout your stay.
Full medical records transmitted to your domestic physician. Canadian patients get provincial follow-up coordination. Check-ins at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 90 days.
HealPath Global charges a single concierge fee — paid directly to us. Hospital costs are paid directly by you to the hospital. Two separate transactions. Full transparency.
