Is V.K.V. American Hospital listed as authorised for international health tourism?
Yes — listed on the Ministry of Health register as of 2026-10-27 (document ST-0300). This site has read it on the register since 2026-09-17.
Being on the register says a facility holds the authorisation. It is not a quality or safety verdict;
that is what an independent investigation is for.
