Frequently Asked Questions

Travelling across international borders to obtain health care is medical tourism.

Medical tourism (also called medical travel, health tourism or global healthcare) is a term initially coined by travel agencies and the mass media to describe the rapidly-growing practice of traveling across international borders to obtain health care.

Affordable Healthcare: The foremost and the major benefit of medical tourism is the huge gap in the cost of treatments. A heart bypass surgery could cost $60,000 to $80,000 in the United States, while you pay around $10,000 in a country like Turkey. A knee replacement surgery could cost $50,000 in the United States while you can have it done for $6,000 overseas. Similarly, gastric surgery costs around $5,000 at medical tourist destinations while it is around $10,000 to $20,000 in the US.

No Waiting period: Another benefit is to overcome the waiting period. Often the health care system in developed nations has a long queue and you have to wait for months or sometimes even a year. You can travel to foreign countries, receive medical treatment, and convalesce well before a year.

Availability of treatment: Fraction of cost does not always mean a compromise in quality! Many of the most advanced medical facilities in the world don’t existing in developing countries which can be available in other country.
