Medical Services
Professional on-set medical coverage keeping your Peruvian production crew safe and compliant.
Peru presents unique health and safety considerations for film productions, from extreme altitude variation, tropical Amazon heat, and coastal desert to the challenges of shooting across Andes highlands, Amazon rainforest, Pacific desert coast, and ancient ruins. Peru's EsSalud (Seguro Social de Salud) system and MINSA (Ministry of Health) occupational standards set specific standards for on-set medical provision that every production must meet. Our medical professionals understand these local requirements and ensure your crew stays safe whether filming in Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Trujillo, or at remote locations across the country.
We connect you with qualified medical professionals experienced in the specific demands of film production across Peru. Our network includes on-set medics, paramedics, and safety consultants who understand both Peruvian healthcare protocols and production workflows, providing appropriate medical support from remote Amazon jungle and high-altitude Andes locations to major studio shoots.

Medical Coverage Expertise
What are the health requirements for filming in Peru?
Peruvian occupational safety regulations (Ley 29783) and MINSA health requirements for production crews set specific requirements for on-set medical coverage. Productions involving stunts, special effects, large crews, and remote locations require qualified medical personnel. We ensure your production meets all Peruvian compliance standards and help you determine the appropriate level of coverage.
Are vaccinations required for crew traveling to Peru?
Yellow fever vaccination required for Amazon regions; altitude sickness medication essential for Cusco (3,400m) and highland shoots; typhoid and Hepatitis A recommended. We provide pre-production health briefings covering all recommended preventive measures for your specific shooting locations.
How do emergency services work in Peru?
106 for police, 116 for ambulance (SAMU), and 115 for fire services, though response times vary outside Lima. We establish emergency protocols before production begins, including hospital routes, ambulance contacts, and evacuation plans tailored to each shooting location. For remote locations, we arrange enhanced medical provisions to account for longer response times.
What insurance is needed for medical coverage in Peru?
Productions typically need International production medical insurance with high-altitude medical coverage, tropical disease provisions, and medical evacuation to Lima for remote locations. We help you understand the specific requirements and ensure your medical coverage documentation meets both Peruvian regulatory standards and your insurer's requirements.
Can you cover remote locations?
Yes, we provide medical coverage for remote and challenging locations throughout Peru, including remote Amazon jungle and high-altitude Andes locations. We plan for extended response times and bring appropriate equipment for isolated shooting environments.
What about stunt coverage?
For stunt work, we provide enhanced medical coverage with additional personnel and equipment as required. Our medics coordinate with stunt coordinators to understand specific risks and prepare accordingly.
