The global tourism market has rised around the world

 

A market study on the global tourism market, recently published by Transparency Market Research (TMR) estimates this disposable 3 ply mask market to rise at an exceptional CAGR of 17.90% over the period from 2013 to 2019 and reach a value US$32.5 bn by the end of the forecast period.The research report, titled “Medical Tourism Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019,” states that the worldwide medical tourism market attained a value of US$10.5 bn in 2012. The increasing number of people travelling abroad to seek medical treatment comprises a rising global trend. The exponentially rising healthcare cost in developed regions, coupled with the availability of advanced yet cost-effective medical services in developing countries, is encouraging people to travel abroad for treatment purposes that may also incorporate an extended holiday.

 

This trend is called medical tourism and has been showcasing definitive growth around the world over the past few years. Demand for Advanced and Cost-effective Medical Services Boosts Global Medical Tourism Market Medical tourism may include sophisticated treatments such as neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, orthopedics, elective treatments such as cosmetic surgeries and dental care, or routine health check-ups. The visibly rising cost of healthcare services in developed countries is the prime factor bolstering the market for medical tourism. According to a report published by Transparency Market Research, approximately 50 million people in the U.S. alone are uninsured, while 139 million Americans do not have dental insurance. An estimated 1.6 million Americans opted for medical tourism in 2012, since the treatment for the same disease in developing nations costs 20% to 30% less than that in developed countries. This helps patients and their families save a substantial share of the cost even after accounting for the travel expenses. The global medical tourism market, therefore, sees lucrative opportunities in the forthcoming years with an increasing number of people making it their preferred choice.

Transparency Market Research, in its latest report, pegs the overall value of the global medical tourism market at US$10.5 bn in 2012, and it is expected to reach US$32.5 bn by the end of 2019. If the figures hold true, the global medical tourism market will exhibit an impressive CAGR of 17.9% between 2013 and 2018. Asian Countries Witness Highest Influx of Medical Tourists With high-quality infrastructure and low costs, Asian countries have emerged as the most prominent players in the market for medical tourism over the past few years. Asia attracted over 5.6 million foreign patients in 2012, generating a revenue of a whopping US$6.4 bn from medical tourism. The presence of popular tourist destinations in this region has also contributed to attracting an increasing number of people from abroad. India, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan are among the Asian countries that witness the highest number of people travelling from abroad to seek medical services. For instance, Thailand has emerged as the most popular destination for medical tourists from Western Europe for cosmetic surgeries. In 2012, Thailand received over 2.5 million foreign patients that accounts for almost 45% of the total number of foreign arrivals in Asia.
