The concept of medical tourism has grown by leaps and bounds in the modern world, thanks to awareness and also the media making it a global term.

Medical Tourism is a term used to define the process of travelling to other countries where the cost of healthcare and surgery is much lower and getting the treatment done. For example, say a surgery costs 200000$ in the United States and the same costs just about 10000$ in India; the patient would be able to save many times the amount of money by travelling to India and get the surgery done rather than getting it done in the United States. Even after deducting the cost of travelling like flight tickets etc., it would be a huge money saver for the patient.
The concept of medical tourism has also made healthcare affordable to people in developed countries who have a lower income because of the arbitrage in the medical expenses between two countries.
