The Embassy of India in Manila, Philippines, has announced special provisions for Filipino nationals and foreign residents seeking urgent medical treatment in India.

In an advisory, the Embassy highlighted that anyone requiring medical care for critical conditions such as life-threatening diseases, congenital illnesses, organ transplants, oncology, and paediatric ailments should contact the Consular Wing of the Embassy.

Interested parties are encouraged to visit the Consular Wing in person at their office located in Bonifacio Global City or reach out via email or telephone for assistance in obtaining the necessary visas and facilitation for medical visits to India. The Embassy has ensured language support with IVRS available in English, Hindi, and Tagalog to assist in the process.

Additionally, the advisory extends the invitation to those interested in alternative medicine services such as Ayurveda, Yoga, Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy (AYUSH) available in India. Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and philanthropic groups from the Philippines focused on improving healthcare accessibility and affordability for Filipino nationals are also encouraged to collaborate with the Embassy to facilitate medical treatments.

In cases of emergencies requiring immediate medical attention during closed holidays or weekends, a dedicated emergency mobile number has been provided for direct assistance.

The Embassy further emphasised the convenience of obtaining E-Medical Visas through their online portal, ensuring a hassle-free application process.

This initiative underscores India's commitment to providing comprehensive healthcare solutions and facilitating medical tourism for international patients, especially from the Philippines, seeking advanced medical treatments in various specialties.
