ensuring the patient receives the right medical care throughout the journey.
What is Medical Repatriation?
Medical repatriation is the process of transporting a patient from one country back to their
home country for further treatment or recovery. It can involve a private air ambulance,
commercial airline with medical escort, stretcher service, or ground ambulance—depending on the
patient’s condition and urgency.
We take care of all aspects of the journey, including:
Medical assessment and clearance
Flight and transport arrangements
Liaising with healthcare providers at both ends
Handling documentation for border control, visas, and customs
Emergency vs. Planned Medical Transfers
Whether urgent or planned, our case managers coordinate every detail, ensuring patient safety and comfort throughout the journey.
Emergency Transfers
Emergency Transfers are for critically ill patients requiring immediate evacuation often within hours. These missions typically use fully equipped air ambulances or commercial flights with intensive care teams.
Planned Transfers
Planned Transfers allow more time for preparation. They are suitable for patients who are stable but still need medical supervision and specialised equipment during travel. This option can be more cost-efficient and flexible in terms of scheduling.

India – Major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi

Working with Consulates, Embassies & Hospitals
International patient transfer often requires coordination with embassies, consulates, and healthcare facilities. We work directly with these bodies to:
- Secure travel permits and clearances
- Arrange necessary medical and immigration documentation
- Coordinate hospital admissions and discharges
- Ensure compliance with each country’s medical travel regulations
