Questions from patients in Oman
How quickly can treatment be scheduled?
Once reports are reviewed and the plan is agreed, admission is usually arranged within days of arrival, after in-person evaluation by the treating doctor.
Can I pay in Omani rials?
Hospitals in India generally bill in Indian rupees or US dollars. The rial is pegged to the US dollar, so this page's conversion is a close indication before bank fees.
Can my family stay with me?
In a single room, one attendant can usually stay with the patient. Other family members stay in nearby accommodation that your coordinator can arrange.
