HEALTH IN INDIA

Take care when purchasing medicines locally, as counterfeit pharmaceuticals are a common problem, and may be difficult to distinguish from genuine medications. Hospitals often expect immediate cash payment for health services. Emergency services comparable to those in the United States or Europe are non-existent, and the blood supply is unreliable and unsafe for transfusion. For serious medical problems, you should consider traveling to the United States, Europe.

Most hospitals and doctors overseas do not accept U.S. health insurance. Always carry your prescription medication in original packaging with your doctor’s prescription. Check with the Federal Ministry of Health in India to ensure the medication is legal in India.


The following diseases are prevalent:

  • Chikungunya
  • Dengue

Simple rules to stay safe

  • Exercise caution, especially at night. Roads may be unmarked and unlit.
  • Be vigilant when using public telephones or ATMs, especially in secluded areas.
  • Avoid wearing expensive jewelry.
  • Avoid carrying expensive objects or large amounts of cash.
  • Keep doors and windows locked, especially at night.
  • Use caution in dealing with beach merchants.
