New patient reporting time and OPD visit planning
For new patients, TMH’s patient booklet says patients should report to the Registration Area between 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Patients already on treatment or follow-up should report to OPD according to their appointment time. Walk-in patients may be issued appointments only as per availability.
| Visitor type | When to report | Practical note |
|---|---|---|
| New cancer patient | Registration Area between 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM | Reach early with patient, attendant, ID, referral letter if any and cancer diagnosis documents. |
| Follow-up patient | As per appointment time | Carry case file/smart card, reports, prescription and next-visit instructions. |
| Walk-in patient | Subject to slot availability | Do not depend on walk-in if travelling from outside Mumbai; use online registration/call first. |
| Second-opinion patient | Use Expert Second Opinion path where suitable | TMH says second opinion may be provided even if the patient is not physically available, but it is only an opinion service. |
New registration process at TMH Parel
For first-time patients, registration is done at OPD registration counters. The patient booklet says Private Category counters are on the 1st floor of Homi Bhabha Building, while General Category counters are on the Ground Floor of Golden Jubilee Building. After reporting, a token is issued and the registration form is filled as per token number.
Documents to carry
- Patient ID proof and mobile number.
- All biopsy reports, histopathology reports, imaging films/CDs, blood reports and previous treatment records.
- Referral letter from doctor/hospital, if available.
- Old chemotherapy, surgery or radiation summary if patient has already taken treatment elsewhere.
- Insurance card, government scheme card, AB-PMJAY/MJPJAY documents or employer letter if claiming support.
- Enough photocopies and digital copies of key reports.
- Responsible adult attendant’s ID proof and mobile number.
General vs private category, registration fee and initial deposit
Patients may choose General Category or Private Category. TMH’s patient booklet says switching categories later is generally discouraged and allowed only in justified circumstances with approval. Choose carefully before registration.
| Category | Registration fee | Initial deposit amount | Practical meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| General patients | ₹100 | ₹4,000 | Lower pricing; more crowding and longer waiting are possible. |
| Private patients other than Adult Hematology cancer | ₹500 | ₹20,000 | Higher charges; usually lighter waiting areas than General Category. |
| Private Adult Hematology cancer patients | ₹500 | ₹50,000 | Higher initial deposit because hematology treatment may be resource-intensive. |
| Foreign nationals | ₹750 | ₹2,00,000 | Foreign nationals are registered separately and charges are levied accordingly. |
Online registration, EMR and second-opinion options
TMC’s online registration page separates patient needs into different paths. Choosing the correct path saves time and prevents wrong-counter confusion.
| Online option | Who should use it | Practical tip |
|---|---|---|
| New Patient Registration | Diagnosed cancer patients who wish to take treatment at TMH Parel. | Use when the patient is planning treatment/investigation at TMH. |
| Expert Second Opinion | Cancer patients who need expert opinion but may not take treatment at TMH Parel. | Second opinion does not mean medicines or invasive procedures will be issued on that basis. |
| Preventive Oncology | Individuals without cancer diagnosis but with risk factor or suspected cancer. | Use for screening/risk-based evaluation, not emergency care. |
| Referral Investigation | Patients referred from outside TMH for cancer-related investigations. | Carry outside doctor’s referral and all previous reports. |
| EMR login | Registered patients with case number printed on hospital case file/smart card. | Use case number and smart-card PIN/password for online medical record access. |
Cancer OPD disciplines and service areas to ask for

- Keep original reports and digital copies with at least one family member.

- If you are travelling from another state, plan at least one extra day for registration, counters and repeat documents.
