Abstract

Medical tourism is increasing day by day and one can see a large number of people are opting for medical tourism in India. This tourism, widely also known as medical travel, health tourism or global healthcare tourism that covers all types of medical disease and health conditions, and it also provides affordable healthcare to one and all around the globe. Health tourism helps in combining physical wellness with leisure and relaxation in order to get a completely rejuvenated experience after the entire process. Citizens of countries like Great Britain and Canada, who have national health care schemes, often undertake overseas travel to cut down on extra waiting time. Similarly, others might head abroad to get a cosmetic surgery done since it is not covered by most insurance providers.
