ENT Hospital

ENT Hospital is a hospital serving patients in central Mauritius, providing inpatient and outpatient medical care to residents and visitors.

Mauritius operates a dual healthcare system: a public network of government hospitals providing free care to all citizens and residents, and a growing private sector offering faster access and higher-quality facilities for those with health insurance or the means to pay out of pocket.

Private hospitals in Mauritius offer significantly shorter waiting times than the public sector, modern equipment, and an environment similar to private healthcare in Europe or South Africa. The main private hospital groups operating in Mauritius include Wellkin Hospital (Moka), C-DAC (Floreal), Fortis Darné (Floreal), Clinique du Nord (Grand Baie), and C-Care (multiple sites).

Costs at private hospitals are considerably lower than in Western Europe. A GP consultation costs MUR 1,000–2,000; specialist consultations MUR 2,000–5,000; surgical procedures from MUR 50,000 upward. MEDICOVER is the largest private health insurance provider in Mauritius with a wide network; AXA Assurances and SICOM also offer health plans. International health policies (Cigna, Allianz, Bupa) are accepted at most private facilities.

For medical emergencies in Mauritius, call 114 (ambulance). The SAMU (emergency medical service) operates 24/7. For non-life-threatening urgent care, private clinics and hospital emergency departments offer walk-in services with minimal waits.
