Does Health Insurance Cover Travel and Stay Costs for Uterine Fibroid Surgery?Uterine Fibroid
2 months ago
We are from haridwar, and the nearest hospital offering Uterine fibroid surgery is in another city. The travel, stay, and hospital charges together make the overall cost unaffordable. Does insurance cover non-medical costs like travel and accommodation for treatment, or is there any support program for such cases?

Health insurance policies in India usually cover hospitalization, surgery, medicines, and diagnostics. They do not include non-medical expenses such as travel, food, or accommodation for the patient or attendants. Although some government schemes provide a limited transport allowance, most private insurance plans exclude these costs.
We understand how it increases the burden for patients from cities like Haridwar who must travel for fibroid surgery. Pristyn Care offers uterine fibroid treatment and supports the patients through free pick-up and drop-off facilities in the surgery city, insurance assistance and EMI options.
