What should I bring to the emergency department?
Bring the patient's photo ID, any insurance or Aarogyasri card, a list of current medicines and any recent reports. If you cannot gather these, come anyway; treatment comes first.
Is cashless treatment possible in an emergency?
Yes, for eligible insurance policies. Emergency treatment begins immediately while our insurance desk raises the pre-authorisation with your insurer.
Do you have an ICU?
Yes. Patients who need continuous monitoring are cared for in our Intensive Care Unit. Our Medchal branch also has a NICU for newborns.
When should I go to the emergency department instead of the OPD?
