Medical tourism is where the healthcare services are sought and delivered outside of the home country of the customer, wherein people travel to other countries for medical, dental, and surgical care while at the same time, they can experience a vacation and come into contact with the attractions of the country they are visiting. This new type of tourism has been increasing in demand as people living in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Europe are already well-traveled. The new technology of the Internet has also contributed to the acquisition of more reliable information from other parts of the world. A person from any part of the world can easily find superbly well-trained doctors who perform the same procedures as doctors in, let’s say, the United States, at a fraction of the cost.
The reasons patients travel for treatment vary. Many medical tourists from the United States are seeking treatment at a fraction of the cost at home. In Canada, it is often people who are frustrated by long waiting times. In Great Britain, the patient can't wait for treatment by the National Health Service but also can't afford to see a physician in private practice. Thus the healthcare system in these nations is getting every day more congested with exorbitant prices and long lists for patients to receive treatment. There is also the issue that a large percentage of the population in countries such as the US and Canada has no health insurance or receives minimal coverage. Cost savings for medical tourists are enormous because international travel is more affordable and most important. After all, medical and surgical procedures cost a fraction of the prices.
For others, becoming a medical tourist is a chance to combine a tropical vacation with elective surgery.
And more patients are coming from poorer countries such as Bangladesh and African Countries where treatment may not be available.
In India, medical tourism is growing rapidly. Many factors are bringing Medical tourists to New Delhi. The combination of scenic beauty, cultural diversity, strategic geographical position, excellent connectivity being the capital of the country….but most important of all, our medical professionals are well trained around the world, use the latest technologies and medications, and have earned a reputation of quality professionals. So India offers,
- Less cost for the same standard of care as compared to their own local private healthcare providers
- Excellent quality of care with highly trained surgeons & clinicians
- The world-class quality of equipment & facilities
- Quality of overall experience including preoperative planning and postoperative physiotherapy.
- Prompt access to treatment by senior & experienced clinical staff
The real question is why are U.S./European medical costs so high? India’s health care systems haven't been overburdened by administrative costs the way U.S./Europe systems are. Services for almost everything anywhere in the world cost less than the U.S./Europe not because they are cheap, but because US/Europe prices, especially for health care, medications, etc., are inflated to cover expensive, unseen, and sometimes unnecessary costs and paperwork. Also, the value of USD 1/EURO buys more in India than US/Europe.
