Yes, many health insurance policies cover inpatient Ayurvedic treatment under the AYUSH benefit, subject to the terms and conditions of the policy. The extent of coverage—including eligible treatments, room rent limits, waiting periods, and exclusions—varies from one insurance provider and policy to another. As coverage is policy-specific, we recommend that you check with your insurance provider to confirm whether your policy includes AYUSH benefits and whether your proposed treatment is eligible for coverage. AVN Arogya is NABH-accredited and empanelled with most major insurance companies and TPAs, enabling eligible patients to avail cashless treatment or reimbursement assistance, subject to insurance approval.

AVN Arogya is NABH Accredited, reflecting our commitment to maintaining high standards of patient safety, clinical care, quality management, and healthcare practices. We follow NABH standards across our operations, ensuring a structured approach to treatment protocols, patient care, safety practices, and continuous quality improvement.

Yes. AVN Arogya provides the necessary supporting documents to help international patients apply for a Health Visa. Based on the treating doctor's recommendation, we can issue an Invitation Letter stating the medical condition, the need for inpatient treatment, and the recommended duration of stay at the hospital. This letter can be used to support your health visa application. Where required, we can also generate the Invitation Letter through the FRRO portal as per the applicable guidelines. To prepare the invitation letter, patients are required to provide a copy of their passport and other relevant details requested by our team. For assistance with health visa documentation or to request an invitation letter, please contact our Customer Care Team at +91 95002 92220. Our team will guide you through the documentation and application process.

We understand this conversation can be difficult. A few approaches that work: (1) Start with a telemedicine consultation — hearing from a qualified physician is more convincing than a website, (2) Share specific case outcomes for their condition (we can provide references), (3) Emphasise that we work WITH their existing doctors, not against them, (4) Reassure them that they won't be asked to stop current medicines, (5) If they're hesitant about travel, our visiting specialists at 6 clinics across 6 cities may be closer. Our care coordinators are experienced at having these conversations with families.

Consultation fees are ₹150 for a phone (tele) consultation with a Physician or Senior Physician, ₹300 for an in-person consultation and for a review with a Senior Consultant Physician, and ₹500 for a video consultation with a Senior Consultant Physician. First-time patients pay a one-time registration fee of ₹50 in addition, except for phone consultations. OP therapy packages are quoted separately, based on the treatment plan your physician recommends after the consultation. We provide a detailed cost estimate before treatment begins — no surprises.
