CONCLUSION
It is found that the maximum number of
tourists are not sure about what they will
do if they get sick while their stay in
Nepal. However, the concept of ‘one-stop
expert health solution centre’ is highly
appreciated .
RECOMMENDATION
The concerned authorities could start
working on developing a health-care system
for tourists that provides services which are
appropriate, easily accessible, affordable and
acceptable to them.
