Is Kauvery Hospital JCI accredited?
Yes. Kauvery holds dual JCI 8th Edition accreditation: Vadapalani (January 2025) and Alwarpet (October 2025). JCI is the internationally recognised gold standard for hospital quality and patient safety. Both units hold the most current version of the standard, placing Kauvery among a very small group of hospital networks in India with more than one JCI-accredited campus.

Cost depends on the procedure, complexity, length of stay, and any investigations required. Treatment in India costs 60-80% less than comparable private care in the UK or US. Knee replacement costs USD 4,000-7,000 in India versus USD 30,000-49,000 in the USA. My 1Health provides a written estimate from Kauvery's specialist team based on your reports before you travel. You pay the same rate as going directly to the hospital.
