Indonesian healthcare translation expertise

100% human-based medical translation

At 24 Hours Translate, we provide accurate, 100% human-based medical translation services, deploying only native medical translators with subject-matter expertise in medicine, healthcare, life sciences, and clinical materials, and based in the markets where your target language is spoken.

We believe a human-based approach is essential for high-stakes medical content. Only qualified human linguists can fully understand complex medical terminology, interpret clinical and regulatory context, and ensure clarity across patient-facing, clinical, and healthcare documentation.

For this reason, our medical translators translate only into their native language. This guarantees that the final delivery is both technically accurate and culturally sound.

Native-speaking Indonesian medical linguists

We have developed a team of native-speaking Indonesian medical translators, editors and medical-field language professionals and we follow industry-standard guidelines for accuracy and compliance.

A small error in labeling, IFUs, or patient reports can endanger patients’ lives and expose the hospital or clinic to legal liability. This is why we invest significant time and effort in building a team of certified medical translators to support clients across the medical device, pharmaceutical, and healthcare sectors, as well as contract research organizations (CROs).

Experience in regulated healthcare content

Whether you need patient records, IFUs, informed consent forms, clinical protocols, regulatory submissions, or labeling translated into Indonesian, 24 Hours Translate has the experience and specialized expertise to support your evolving medical translation needs.

As a professional language service provider for the healthcare and life sciences sector, we continuously enhance our capabilities in medical translation, including clinical documentation, regulatory materials, and patient-facing communications, while fully complying with Indonesia’s BPOM and Ministry of Health medical device regulations.

Accurate medical terminology and localization

The medical industry is full of constantly evolving terminology and glossaries. Maintaining consistent terminology across countries, languages, and regulatory frameworks can be a significant challenge.

At 24 Hours Translate, we create client-specific terminology bases and translation memories within our translation management systems. This approach improves accuracy, maintains terminology consistency, and reduces internal workload across ongoing medical translation projects.

We also reference authoritative medical glossaries, regulatory guidance, and industry resources to help ensure terminology is translated accurately and applied consistently across all medical content.

Confidential handling of sensitive documents

24 Hours Translate is committed to upholding the highest standards of data security and confidentiality, recognizing the ethical and regulatory responsibility of protecting sensitive healthcare, clinical, and regulated industry information.

We implement strict confidentiality agreements at every stage of the translation workflow. Our processes are supported by experienced IT professionals, including cybersecurity and information security specialists, to ensure data remains protected throughout the project lifecycle.

Step 2: Translation Preparation

We will begin preparing for any potential challenges by taking the necessary steps to identify and address them.

Once the contract has been signed, we will assemble a dedicated team of industry-specific translators who are native speakers of your target language, along with experienced editors and proofreaders. We will also prepare the latest field-specific glossaries and translation memories to ensure consistency, accuracy, and compliance throughout the project.

After reading and evaluating your source documents, our translators will begin translating your content in an organized, detail-oriented manner. During translation, they will ensure that all technical terms and translation memories are applied accurately.

Step 4: Editing

Editors will review the translated texts to ensure they meet the project’s objectives, expectations, and applicable regulatory standards.

They will carefully examine the grammar, spelling, terminology, and sentence structure, while also verifying that the translation remains faithful to the original content, maintains the same level of writing quality, and complies with the submission requirements of the relevant regulatory authorities.

Step 5: Formatting

The formatting of the translated document will be adjusted so it matches the original.

Graphic designers or DTP (desktop publishing) professionals will handle the formatting of the translation so that it looks, feels, and functions like the original and serves the same purpose.

Step 6: Proofreading & Quality Assurance

A final proofreading and revision of the formatted texts in detail.

Proofreaders will review the formatted texts to avoid errors or inconsistencies. The final translated document will be faithful to the original, error-free, and meet the highest quality standards.
