After Debate

“Anyone who is a medical tourist and goes abroad to get treatment has to have special care because they have special needs, not like running down a check list of typical patient needs. Medical Tourist is someone away from home, probably have no friends and family with them, it's a different language may be or certainly different food needs, cultural or religious needs. They need special attention because they may not understand what the doctor is saying even the medicines are different.”

“I would believe that this type of conference needs to be repeated in India and we need to take this conference to Africa too . I want better hospitals coming to Africa, the best India can offer”

“India is poised for mega launches and thereby is increasing its global visibility and accessibility. It is the right time to benefit from the potential of medical tourism with the global industry being at more than US$ 60 billion. The Indian health sector is a US$ three billion industry and therefore we should look at developing it better and ensuring that we tap its maximum potential.”

“According to the research of Texas Medical Concierge (TMC), 4o per- cent people prefer medical tourism destinations which have good technology and better healthcare facilities. Overall about 87 per cent people prefer places which have high quality facilities, rather than the cost involved. India is able to provide great facilities at only one-tenth the cost, in comparison to other countries.”

“Most of the countries are undergoing healthcare crisis in the world today, with over 250 million people in the US still uninsured. In the developed countries the healthcare is costly while the developing countries are able to provide high-end facilities to mostly high-end clientele. Also better facilities are available to people who are willing to travel for them.”

“The prospects of medical tourism in India are increasing with the improvements in technology and infrastructure, leading to better quality healthcare facilities in comparison to other countries.”

“Indian and Turkish medical tourism are similar in nature and issues, as both need to come forward for marketing and promoting services and facilities.”

“India will soon be the world’s number one country in terms of medical tourism. In 2012, 47 per cent Nigerians came to India for medical tourism. However, Indian hospitals should start catering to various demands and requirements of international patients including language provisions and local cuisine.”
