can someone give a bit of info about the medical tourism scene in india??
i completely agree that out priority is not to provide medical care to foreigners but to our own people - but thats where medical tourism comes in. it would help to generate vital revenue for our domestic mecal system. just like the management quota candidates in engineering colleges in a way pay for the free seat candidates, we should try to provide cheap medical aid to indians by raking money by providing medicare to foreigners.
whci are the sort of treatments for which people come here??
cosmetic surgery?? chemotheraphy?? IVF??
and which cities/states have already taken the lead in this sector??
