India is considered the leading country promoting medical tourism-and
now it is moving into a new area of "medical outsourcing," where
subcontractors provide services to the overburdened medical care
systems in western countries.
India's National Health Policy declares that treatment of foreign
patients is legally an "export" and deemed "eligible for all fiscal
incentives extended to export earnings." Government and private sector
studies in India estimate that medical tourism could bring between $1
billion and $2 billion US into the country by 2012. The reports
estimate that medical tourism to India is growing by 30 per cent a
year.

The newest and fastest-growing area of medical tourism is a visit to
the dentist, where costs are often not covered by basic insurance and
by only some extended insurance policies. India, Thailand and Hungary
attract patients who want to combine a filling, extraction or root
canal with a vacation.

Medical tourism: Cost comparisons

Figures are estimated, are in U.S. dollars or U.K. pounds, figures vary
due to prices charged by different medical centres and patient profile.

I apologies for the fact, but the idea of this group is to provide an interface for medical tourism industry to share their ideas effortlessly.
 
Erroneously due to automated system few of the members have been added who are not related to the industry.
 
With sincere apologies I request all the unrelated members to send a request to unsubscribe and it will be done with priority.
