MEDİCAL TOURİSM
Medical tourism refers to people traveling to a country other than their
own to obtain medical treatment. In the past this usually referred to those
who traveled from less-developed countries to major medical centers in
highly developed countries for treatment unavailable at home. However, in
recent years it may equally refer to those from developed countries who
travel to developing countries for lower priced medical treatments. The
motivation may be also for medical services unavailable or illegal in the home
country.
Medical tourism most often is for surgeries (cosmetic or otherwise) or
similar treatments, though people also travel for dental tourism or fertility
tourism People with rare conditions may travel to countries where the
treatment is better understood. However, almost all types of health care are
available, including psychiatry, alternative medicine, convalescent care, and
even burial services.

Medical tourism in Asia
Medical tourism is relatively new in Asia. TheAsian
financial crisis of 1997 resulted in significant losses
for the regions businesses, including private
hospitals. These hospitals thus began trying to find
solutions to their problems and, accordingly, began
to offer new and attractive health packages.
Thailand was the first country to enter the
medical tourism industry, and it quickly became a
hub for cosmetic surgery. India, Malaysia, and
Singapore followed suit, and the four counties
together attracted more than 1.4 million medical
tourists in 2003 ( Tata, 2007 ). Malaysia now
attracts 100 000 foreign medical tourists a year,
and Singapore and India are experiencing fast
growth in this area as a result of effective
marketing strategies. However, Thailand remains
the leader in the Asia-Pacific region, attracting 400
000 medical tourists in 2003 ( Teh & Chu, 2006).In
2005,approximately.
Medical Tourism in Malaysia
Modern healthcare facilities,
qualified medical experts, and low
prices are the chief characteristics
of the Malaysian medical tourism
market. In addition, like
Thailand,Malaysia has the
advantages of such
physical attractions as beautiful
beaches and resorts…
MEDİCAL TOURİSM İN
İNDİA
India is positioning itself as a primary
medical destination, offering everything
fromalternative treatments to the most
complex medical procedures (Connell, 2006;
Singh, 2008). Many hospitals have attained
Joint Commission International (JCI)
accreditation, a U.S
MEDİCAL TOURİSM İN THAİLAND
Medical tourism is an integral part of Thailand’s tourism
and
healthcare industries. As a medical tourism destination, it
offers JCIaccredited
hospitals and U.S.-certified physicians. The country also
offers a broad range of medical treatments e from heart
surgery to
organ transplants e in modern facilities at much lower
prices than
those inWestern countries.
Medical tourism development
in Hong Kong
Hong Kong has been a leading financial
center since the 19th century. Its healthcare
system consists of both a public and private
sector, with public healthcare services
provided by the Department of Health and
the Hospital Authority. The former provides
primary care (preventive and outpatient
services), and the latter manages the public
hospitals.
Methodology
A qualitative research method was adopted
in this study. Qualitative research essentially
refers to any kind of research that produces
findings not arrived at by statistical
procedures or quantification…
Barriers to development of medical tourism
Economic impacts of medical tourism
Although destination attributes and the quality of
healthcare influence medical travel decisions, the primary
motivator is generally economic…
Infrastructure/superstructure
The sub-categories of capacity problems,
land scarcity, supportive facilities, physical
environment, and separate hospitals are
grouped under the theme of
infrastructure/superstructure…
Policies and Regulations
Registered medical practitioners are not
allowed to advertise in Hong Kong to attract
more patients, in accordance with the
regulations of the Medical Council of Hong
Kong
