Were you hit with a 5000-dollar bill for a cosmetic dental procedure? Do you desperately covet that rhinoplasty but can’t have it because your insurance does not cover it? Are you shocked that your out-of-pocket expenses estimate for that heart valve surgery runs into thousands of dollars?

According to industry reports, Medical Tourism in India is expected to earn revenue of $ 1-2 billion by 2012. Bangalore promises to be the perfect destination for any medical tourist. The range and diversity the country offers is unmatched. Medical tourism in India is now a fast growing industry. The government, the medical fraternity and the tour operators are all preparing for this new revolution.

Bangalore offers health travelers several benefits:

Cost Benefit:

The prime advantage is the cost savings with respect to medical consultancy or surgeries. Many of the Bangalore hospitals, serving international patients, have state-of-the-art infrastructure, highly educated doctors and top-notch services but the figure on that price tag is a fraction of what it would be in developed countries. Even if your insurance does not cover the costs of treatment in India, the final bill in an Indian hospital would most probably be lower than your out-of-pocket expenses.

Timeliness:

Another advantage is the possibility of getting immediate medical attention. There are no waiting lists or delays to contend with, due to insurance issues or unavailability of doctors etc.

Quality Health Care:

Indian doctors and paramedics are well trained and are one of the best in the world. Many professionals, at most of the lead hospitals in the country, have been trained abroad prior to working in India.

Personalized Care

Technological Sophistication

Grant of ‘medical visa’

Easy availability of medicine & drugs

Modern & Traditional:

This is India’s USP. Modern medical aid as well as traditional therapy, such as ayurveda, yoga, naturopathy etc, is available at different locations across the country including Bangalore.
