India, since centuries, has been known for its cultural inheritance and picturesque ecological loveliness, but nowadays, India has gained an obvious spot on the world map as a center for excellent and inexpensive medical and health care. The country is swiftly developing as a shelter for medical tourists with its ample supply of advanced medical amenities, high-tech hospitals, and proficient health care specialists.

Every year, approximately 2,30,000 people from the corners of the globe, particularly from the United States of America, fly over to India for reasonably priced medical treatments, and to enjoy an eccentric vacation holiday. India has a number of reputable hospitals and healthcare institutions that deal with premium and elite class treatments in almost every specific field such as neurology, organ transplants, joint replacement, pediatrics, ophthalmology, cardiology, plastic surgery, urology, dentistry, psychiatry, and Ayurveda. Indian cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Chennai, cater the maximum number of tourists who come to India in order to pursue healthcare and medical treatment.

Why choose India for Healthcare tourism?

India is emerging as a global hub for medical tourism due to definite advantages in prices. Essentially, the reasonable cost variance in medical treatments in India and America is almost completely opposites. The treatment costs incurred in most of the first world countries are around ten times of medical treatment costs incurred in the third world developing countries like India. Another major cause for this flourish is the availability of well-trained, practiced and globally certified healthcare experts who offer accurate healthcare services matched with the finest global standards. Moreover, doctors of Indian origin are now a brand unto themselves in European countries.

The unbroken benefit of healthcare tourism in India is high therapeutic standards along with lesser treatment costs. All foremost healthcare institutes in India offer international standard facilities that are equivalent to a number of the topmost hospitals in the world. While having a discussion with one of India’s prime health care expert and administrators, Dr. Vikram Singh Raghuvanshi, on the subject of ‘Developing India as a global hub for healthcare tourism’, he said, “Indian doctors are prominent and demanded across the world, especially in the areas of cosmetic surgery, dental care, bypass heartsurgery and coronary bypass. Hence, India is a promising destination for medical as well as Healthcare Tourism. For instance, liver transplantation in India has been the most frequently opted clinical procedure by international tourists”.

It is estimated that the Healthcare Tourism industry in India will come across a yearly growth of 30% to touch the $8 billion mark by 2020. India is just starting to take steps on the way to becoming a world leader in Healthcare Tourism. However, as the dollar improves its value, medical treatment costs will remain to rise in the western countries and healthcare services shall carry on to be even more expensive than before. With such a probable scenario approaching, India stances to benefit; this would present a great opening for India to grow further on the Healthcare Tourism front.
