The
Rise of Medical Tourism
New demographic realities such as climbing birth rates and
longevity (1 in 10 people will be older than 80 by 2050) are driving up the
global demand for premium healthcare services.�
Global medical tourism, growing at an annual 17% since 2013
and set to hit 32 billion USD next year, caters mainly for 2 markets: Patients
seeking either luxury rejuvenation and cosmetic treatments, or patients needing
curative care for an ailment that cannot be treated timely or cost-effectively in
their own country.
The APAC market is predicted to soon dominate medical
tourism with over 50% market share according to Technavio, thanks to
comparative savings of 25- 90% in destinations such as Singapore, Taiwan, India
and Malaysia.
�
Why is
Medical Tourism booming?
According to a KPMG study*, medical tourism will continue
to boom, thanks to a plethora of internationally accredited hospitals and
clinics who offer affordable, high-quality and immediate healthcare for
patients requiring urgent care or willing to pay to skip a waiting list.
Medical
tourism also offer patients complete anonymity and the added allure of an
exotic travel destination for those seeking non-invasive treatments such as dental
and cosmetic care that require little to no recovery time.
