Why India is considered as important player in Medical Tourism?

India is known for its best brains, and doctors in India get exposure to a lot of problems that can only be heard and less felt in developed world. aside our paramedics and nurses are trained to compliment doctors expertise. And all of this at a much competative price!!! isnt it interesting and attractive for insurance providers abroad.

Not only Insurance, its also cosmetic treatments like plastic surgeries, dental & maxillofacial procedures where patient will be spending only a fraction for getting the procedure done in India can be sold if projected and marketed in right way.

As mentioned, before our economical manpower is our biggest assert and low infrastructure cost compliments it.

At the same time, price cant always be the winning point. We are yet to be geared up for the war. If we consider the number of hospitals with international certifications to the total number of hospitals, we are far behind other countries in Medical Tourism race.

Telemedicine and medical videoconferencing have to be put to better usage in developing confidance and enhance manpower efficiency.

We need to start selling value along with price. for which our hospitals need to start homework first.We require more hospitals with international standards to increase our visiblity in international arena.

Last but not the least, just like we have special economic zones where one can get sops from government for establishing a factory exclusively for export, why not the hospitals serious in race approach government and request to recognize Health & Medical Tourism as a seperate industry altogether and request for special facilities and benefits. After all a dollar earned either in exporting products or services is a dollar earned by India.

our doctors are the best ... it's a myth & not a reality.

india :: poor medical tourists haven... or do you feel otherwise!!!

I believe that when it comes to health care, safety is the foremost concern. The hospitals in India are well equipped with the latest technology and houses highly qualified and experienced staff who can provide timely and quality medical treatment to patients. Many hospitals in India have international accreditations that certify the quality of health care service.

i think india is equipped withnew tech.. 1st thing cost is low compared to to other countries.. and the the Ayurveda the science of ancient medicine is from India.. so many people are practicing ayurveda and the yoga.. as per me yoga too join hand with medicine. and there is an oppertunity to researce new medicine in india compared to other

Yes , we have so many specialties  including Ayurveda& Naturopath AS WELL AS our traditional regular practices ..is now having the touch of latest modern practices To influence  the globe  for physical as well as mental well being.... so is definitely act as catalyst for medical tourism...

In my opinion Yoga is attracting a lot of tourists to India. India is the birth place of Yoga, which is one of the most popular forms of exercise and rejuvenation today.  There are almost an infinite number of Spa and rejuvenation centers in India that could uplift the mood and enhance health of medical tourists.

Ayurveda and health care activities in India gainig heavy momentaum in the recent past, ayrvedic science is getting advance day by day. Further it was a sciece prevailing in India since from the aintiant period. Government is promoting it as tourisam activity too. All these factors supports its popularity amoung world countries.

before just making any assumption ,one should take a look at the kind of industry that is reason for such a surge in indian medical tourism.the major part of it comes from the infertile couples who get womb seggregated for a nominal price which is way less in comparison to their own country,poor people are being lured into it by  promising amount of  money  .trend isn't any different in organ transplants either.day isn't far enough when india would be acknowleged as outsourcing hub for childrens and organs.it doesn't mean that one should not credit our medical teams and local doctors they really deserve a fair share of praise for performing their best besides the adverse conditions.
