WHY INDIA OF ALL PLACES?

India is amongst the preferred global health destination for the International community seeking health treatment - healthcare outside their countries. It is replicating the Thai model, which has been the first Asian destination for International Patients. India benefits from a large staff of world class experts and the ultra-competitive cost advantage it offers.

With prices at a fraction (less than 10% for example in the treatment of gall stone $600 US) of those in the United States or Europe, the concept has broad consumer appeal.  Indian private and corporate facilities offer advanced technology and high-quality treatment at par with hospitals in developed countries.

India is promoting "medical outsourcing" where subcontractors aim to provide services to the overburdened medical care systems in developed countries. Medical tourism to India is growing by 20% a year.

Why is this so cheap in INDIA?

It is not cheap. It is relatively cheap because that is the way the international economy runs. The income and salaries of individuals are proportionately lower. So a gall bladder operation by laparoscopy may seem only $600 to someone in the US, it is 4 months salary of a receptionist working in a MNC in India.

Due to the current favorable Rupee/Dollar/Pound/Euro exchange rate foreign clients can take advantage of the weak Rupee and expect savings of up to 75% over the same treatment in their own countries, with no compromise on quality.
