We propose a non-Hermitian generalization of the correspondence between the spectral flow and the topological charges of band crossing points (Berry-Chern monopoles). A class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians that display a complex-valued spectral flow is built by deforming an Hermitian model while preserving its analytical index. We relate those spectral flows to a generalized Chern number that we show to be equal to that of the Hermitian case, provided a line gap exists. We demonstrate the homotopic invariance of both the non-Hermitian Chern number and the spectral flow index, making explicit their topological nature. In the absence of a line gap, our system still displays a spectral flow whose topology can be captured by exploiting an emergent pseudo-Hermitian symmetry.
