Description

The study undertaken will refer to the development of health tourism over the years and compare the current standing of the country among the world top ten destinations. The paper will review related literature and highlight applications of medical treatments as well as the number of patient arrivals from source countries. Health tourism has been progressively developing over the years mainly because medical treatment is becoming increasingly expensive in countries around the world. Among other reasons, the lack of medical facilities in proportion to the population and shortages in medical personnel has attributed to the rise of medical treatment and exceed affordable levels. Despite the extremely competitive rates offered by destinations for medical procedures, significant concern has been; why would somebody travel to a foreign country and seek treatment which might be high risk on behalf of the patient. Let alone the language barriers and differing standards in services extended to the patients can negatively affect the quality of treatment provided. On the other hand, facility requirements with conditions of hospital and clinics worldwide approved and standardized by JCI rules and regulations. Hence, medical facilities holding JCI Certification is automatically recognized worldwide.
