CureMeAbroad Becomes the First Indian Startup for Medical Travel to Achieve GHA Medical Travel Facilitator Certification

Palm Beach Gardens, Florida – September 29, 2026: Global Healthcare Accreditation (GHA) is pleased to announce that CureMeAbroad Inc. has achieved GHA Medical Travel Facilitator Certification, with subsidiaries across US and Australia. CureMeAbroad becomes the first AI enabled medical travel platform operating globally to achieve this certification with GHA in India.

This milestone reflects CureMeAbroad's commitment to strengthening transparency, accountability, and patient-centered practices within the medical travel journey, while marking an important development for the medical travel facilitator sector in India, one of the key treatment destinations in its hospital network.

Led by Aditya Oza, CEO and Co-Founder, CureMeAbroad is a global healthcare platform offering end-to-end services for international patients, managing hospital selection, travel, treatment coordination, and follow-up care in one place. The company has built a network of more than 400 accredited hospitals across six countries, including Turkey, Thailand, India, Mexico, Georgia, and the United Arab Emirates.

Oza oversees the company's overall strategy, hospital partnerships, patient experience standards, and governance and compliance initiatives. The GHA certification process provided CureMeAbroad with an opportunity to formally evaluate and document its practices against established standards for medical travel facilitation.

"A patient flying across the world for surgery is trusting strangers with one of the biggest decisions of their life, and this industry has largely asked them to do that on marketing alone. Going through GHA's review gives patients something more solid to weigh us against, and the documentation and processes it demanded made us a more accountable company in the process. If medical travel is going to earn that trust properly, standards like this are how it happens, and we are glad to be measured by them,"said Aditya Oza, CEO and Co-Founder of CureMeAbroad.

Medical travel facilitators play an important role in helping international patients navigate complex healthcare decisions, from identifying and comparing healthcare providers to coordinating communication, travel, treatment, and follow-up. As the industry continues to grow, establishing clear processes and accountability can help strengthen confidence among both patients and healthcare partners.

"We are pleased to recognize CureMeAbroad as the first in India to achieve GHA's Medical Travel Facilitator Certification. Their commitment to undergoing an independent certification process demonstrates the importance of establishing clear standards and accountability within this sector."

GHA's Medical Travel Facilitator Certification demonstrates a commitment to internationally recognized best practices that enhance patient safety, elevate the patient experience, and strengthen trust throughout the medical travel journey. The certification also provides a proven framework for operational excellence, helping facilitators improve performance, mitigate risk, and drive long-term business sustainability.
