Medical tourism is defined as the movement of people from their national borders to receive medical treatment or care in another country. Medical tourism in the world is a widespread and sunrise industry. Medical tourism allows the patients to move across borders to get their desired medical treatments and it also allows the patients to travel and explore the country they are traveling to. This quenches their thirst for travel and also offers them the best possible treatment options. Healthcare tourism in Turkey and India is very famous because of this. Cosmetic surgery, dental care, cardiac procedures, and orthopedic surgeries are common choices for medical tourists.
In the past few years, the worldwide medical tourism sector has come out as one of the most promising and fast-growing sectors in the global health industry. As more and more individuals are looking for safe, low-cost, high-quality medical treatment outside their home countries, this particular industry is undergoing not only rapid growth but also phenomenal change in making our concepts regarding accessibility as well as delivery of healthcare services obsolete.
Medical tourism was estimated to be a $30 bn market worth in total and despite the COVID-19 pandemic temporarily slowing down international travel, the valuation of the industry just proves how strong and flexible this sector is. The Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Americas lead the medical tourism market with destinations in Thailand, India, Mexico, and Turkey as highly favored locations for being a hub of Medical Tourism. Yapita Health is one of the leading medical tourism companies that works in India, Turkey, Thailand, Singapore, and many more countries and regions.
