Private vs. Government hospitals
Why choose a private hospital over a government hospital?
In India, the government and charitable hospitals are undeniably commendable. However, the reality is that the overwhelming demand often leads to long queues and delays in receiving timely care. On the other hand, the private hospitals we collaborate with not only prioritize efficiency but also provide exceptional quality of care. For instance, the Dhaka Medical College Hospital in Bangladesh is renowned, yet many individuals opt for private hospitals due to the prompt and reliable service they consistently offer.
Are private hospitals in India costly?
The healthcare industry in India operates under strict regulations to ensure the highest standards. Although private hospitals may come with higher expenses, the timely and efficient service they provide often justifies the cost. It's worth mentioning that the competitive nature of the private healthcare sector in India results in competitive pricing without compromising on quality. We have even encountered cases where the treatment cost considering hotel and air travel to be cheaper than in renowned hospitals in Bangladesh.
Cost related
Is the cost estimation given by Shohoj Medical Service considered to be the final price?
It's important to understand that the cost estimate provided is not always 100% accurate. It is based solely on the evaluation of medical records, without the doctor having the chance to physically examine you. In certain critical cases where the diagnosis is uncertain, additional tests may be required, which might not be accessible in Bangladesh. However, in approximately 95% of cases, the cost estimate is fairly reliable and accurate.
Will I have to pay extra if I use Shohoj Medical Service to go to the hospital?
Absolutely not. We work in partnership with the hospital, so there are no additional charges if you choose to go through us. Our priority is to ensure a seamless experience for both you and the hospital, making your treatment journey as smooth as possible. You pay at actual, at the hospital. No payment is done in Bangladesh. In fact, there may even be potential discounts available if you decide to use our services instead of going directly. Rest assured, we are the ideal choice to provide you with peace of mind.
Visa assistance, travel ticket & hotel
Can Shohoj Medical service assist with obtaining a medical visa and arranging travel tickets?

We will provide a medical visa invitation and guide you through the application process. Please refer to the IVAC website for detailed requirements. We do not offer travel tickets as our focus is on medical treatment.
