Medical Tourism Market to exceed $107bn by 2030

Medical Tourism Market size is expected to reach USD 107 billion by 2030, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

The availability of advanced and high-quality surgical procedures in developing countries is the key factor driving the growth of the medical tourism industry. Healthcare professionals in developing countries are often trained to handle diverse and advanced medical procedures with expertise similar to that available in North America and Europe. The prospect of excellent treatment at reduced costs is pushing the demand for medical tourism services worldwide.
 

The report identifies that the longer waiting period due to limited availability of certain specialized medical procedures provided in selected countries may restrain the medical tourism market expansion. For instance, for organ transplant surgeries accurate organ matching is necessary, thus making it a time-consuming process. Furthermore, visa approval delays and political turmoil are all crucial variables that may negatively impact the growth of the industry.
 

Governments worldwide are taking initiatives and implementing policies to attract patients from overseas and improve the medical tourism industry outlook. Quick visa approval and simple admission procedures are among the basic strategies used by administrative bodies to attract a large number of foreign patients and boost medical tourism. For example, the American Medical Association adopted a new ethical policy on medical tourism a few years ago to help physicians understand their fundamental responsibilities and interact with patients.
