The #15 hospital in India · Newsweek World's Best
#15 Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research 4.1★
Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER), Puducherry is an autonomous public medical research university and Institute of National Importance under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, tracing its origins to 1823. It is a major tertiary-care referral hospital for southern India, with undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral medical training programmes. As a central-government public institution it operates on a subsidised public fee schedule rather than a commercial self-pay price catalog, so no procedure or package pricing for self-pay or international patients is published.
