India Virtual Hospital (IVH) is a tech-enabled integrated tertiary care ecosystem addressing the needs of Medical Travellers (domestic and international) looking for quality medical treatments in Indian hospitals and healthcare centres. A professional organisation with doctors, healthcare professionals, patient guides on board, IVH team is trained to support and help patients to manage their medical and surgical care away from home, says Swadeep Srivastava, Managing Partner & Founder, India Virtual Hospital, in an interview with Elets News Network (ENN).

Q. What are the challenges faced by Patients going for Tertiary Care Treatment?


There are numerous challenges faced by patients especially medical travellers (travelling to other city) when they are advised for procedures/ operations. They are not aware of the right treatment, right doctor, right hospital and right cost. Most of these queries are to get the right and credible information due to acute lack of trust on the existing referral system or any credible system to help them choose best of medical care. Every month, several patients go back home unsatisfied because of bad experience in their patient journey.

Q. How India Virtual Hospital is making a difference?

A medical traveller or his family member has to just call us at our health line number: 09999- 668-222, or visit our website www. IndiaVirtualHospital.com, to inform about their tertiary care treatment requirement. Thereafter, the IVH team takes over either through tele-consultation or the Patient Care Champion (PCC) enrolled under our Expanded Patient Care Programme who works as a caregiver to patients in their city. IVH PCP is backed by our robust module of patient education and counselling programme run by our in-house doctors and patient counsellors.
