The high cost of treatment in the home country and the availability of advanced medical facilities in the developing countries is predicted to drive the medical tourism market. Affordability and convenience of the good medical facilities with the guidance from the tourism department is expected to drive the medical tourism industry. For instance, in the U.S the cost spend for heart surgery will be almost 80% more than the total cost spends in Asian countries. So, due to these factors, many developed countries patients are preferring to get treated in the developing nation or the nation with high medical facilities with lesser cost for the treatment; these factors are predicted to boost the global medical tourism industry.
Private healthcare is expensive and many insurance companies don’t cover the insurance. There are many circumstances the patient has to face with regards to their insurance policy and regulation. For instance, insurance may not be covered by the company if the treatments are carried out overseas; if the insurance is covered then the insurance companies don’t pay the airfare and extra expenditures. Due to reimbursement policies, patients are forced to stay at their home country and get treated which is consider to be the major restraint for the medical tourism market.
