LONDON, Oct. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Asia continues to be the top medical
destination in medical travel. Asian medical destinations continue
to offer more and better medical procedures and care than most
other medical destinations. Several hospitals in Asia have carved such outstanding reputations
for themselves that medical tourism has become a major
money-spinner. In countries such as Singapore and Thailand, government agencies have been set up
to help market their expertise globally. The Indian government has
removed many visa restrictions and introduced a visa-on-arrival
scheme for medical tourists from selected countries; this allows
foreign nationals to stay in India
for 30 days for medical reasons and can even get a visa of up to 1
year depending upon treatment requirements. Special medical travel
agencies have sprung up around the world, and top Asian hospitals
routinely have special "international" desks and services to assist
overseas patients with everything from doctors' appointments to
accommodation.
The Asia medical tourism market is
anticipated to grow with a double digit CAGR during the period 2015
to 2020. Thailand holds the
highest market share in the Asia
medical tourism market. Thailand
is being followed by India and
Singapore. South Korea stands at the fourth spot in the
year 2014 and is likely to more than double its market share by the
year 2020, while Malaysia is
holding the last spot with XX% market share in the year 2014.
