Receiving medical, wellness, and curative services to improve physical and mental health problems in other countries more than 24 hours. It is the simplest introduction to this various and amazing field known as medical tourism.
Most people thought that medical tourism is traveling to other countries for surgery and come back home. That is the wrong attitude. The category of health tourism goes beyond medical tourism. This type of tourism considers both travel and treatment. In other words, it is to travel to see other countries and get familiar with their culture and using its nature as well as receiving medical services to improve physical health and treatment.
Health Tourism, From Past to Present Day
Health tourism has existed since ancient Greece and Rome. Then, it spread to many European countries and other parts of the world. From ancient times, the people used to go to the river and mineral waters for spiritual relaxation and healing. From ancient times, the warm waters have been associated with peace and rejuvenation of the human body and mind.
The global motto of health tourism is facilities and services at the level of first or advanced world countries and prices and costs at the level of developing and third world countries.
Individual motivations for choosing health tourism as a treatment can vary greatly. These incentives can include reducing treatment costs, avoiding waiting times, improving quality, or accessing treatments that are not legal and available in your home country. Also, medical tourism affects the export and import of different medical and treatment systems through different methods.
Medical Tourism in the World
A combination of several factors has led to an upward trend in people’s inclination to medical travel, including:
- The high cost of living in industrialized countries,
- The facilitation of international travel, and
- The improvement of medical technology and standards in many countries around the world.
One reason for the attraction to medical travel is its convenience compared to other countries. In some countries where the public health care system is common, it often takes a long time to meet the needs of citizens and patients have to wait a long time to be treated.
Conditions such as hip transplants that have to wait in line for a year or more in the UK and Canada. However, in Singapore, Thailand, Iran, or India the patient can be cared for and treated one day after arrival.
Seekers of treatment and health from anywhere in the world can enter a country and receive medical services and care in fields such as cancer, neurological diseases, organ transplants, cosmetic surgeries, etc.
Countries that mainly receive medical tourists include Iran, Cuba, Hungary, India, Jordan, Lithuania, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and most recently the United Arab Emirates. Iran, Brazil, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Turkey are also considered for beauty and cosmetic surgeries.
Iran has the most cosmetic surgeries in the world in recent years, known as the capital of rhinoplasty of the world and one of the best countries for rhinoplasty.
