India has emerged as one of the world’s most cost efficient and fastest growing medical tourism destinations today. The uniqueness of India is its ability to offer holistic medical services such as yoga, meditation, ayurveda, and homeopathic treatments. Despite the advantage of having low medical costs, the Indian government is taking a different approach in promoting its medical tourism industry by highlighting its wellness elements. Most of the medical tourists are from South Asia, Africa and Middle East. While a majority of them prefer India due to the low cost factor (as below table), the destination also offers less waiting time in the hospital, personalized services, medical specialization, highly trained doctors, and accredited hospitals where the majority of them are in New Delhi and Mumbai. Despite the growth of medical tourism, the infrastructure system, general hygiene conditions and the absence of uniform pricing policies and standards across hospitals are still lacking far behind by the Western standards. The recent rape cases of foreign tourists and increasing crime rates further tarnished its tourism destination image.
