Medical Tourism – A Preferred Option

Medical tourism, as an industry is popular due to the degree of convenience and affordability offered by the countries offering such services. In the United States the waiting period for a hip replacement surgery can be more than a year or so whereas the same procedure can be conducted in India, a day after arrival. The healthcare delivery costs at destinations like India, Thailand, Singapore etc are far economical than the United States. Most medical procedures are conducted at one-tenth of the cost in the United States. For instance a heart-valve replacement costing more that $200000 in the U.S can be done for $10000 in India.
