MEDICAL TOURISM AT A GLANCE In an economy that is getting globalized, more and more people are discovering the option that they can be offered quick, high quality healthcare services at affordable prices in countries abroad. The key point is the fact that a patient can combine medical treatment with a relaxing trip in a whole different culture. Over the years, the portion of patients that travelled in order to undergo more complicated and long operations increased significantly. Medical tourism industry started to acquire respect and dimension due to specific factors that led to its subsequent flourishing. Τhe extremely high treatment costs in combination with the huge waiting lists functioned as the driver for the development and deployment of the term and essence of “medical tourism”. The most common procedures that patients undergo are related to dental and aesthetic surgery, IVF and orthopedics It is believed that cosmetic surgery, dental, IVF and cardio surgery will be the top reasons that patients will decide to travel abroad to seek healthcare treatment.
