Another important driver attracting medical tourists globally is the wide access to modern medical facilities, advanced technologies, and skilled doctors available in leading tourism destinations. While concepts like robot-assisted surgeries, proton therapy cancer treatment, and stem cell therapies were limited to only tier one hospitals in developed nations until some years back, these are now also available in countries like India, Thailand, and Turkey due to focused investments to promote medical value travel. Besides competency in general procedures, many countries are now specializing in niche areas and offering superior outcomes through their experience in specific therapies. For example, India has emerged as a leader in bone marrow transplant, joint replacements, and cardiac bypasses with world-class multispecialty hospital chains offering latest technologies. Similarly, countries like Thailand, Singapore, and South Korea are attracting patients for organ transplants, cancer surgeries, and in-vitro fertilization procedures by providing internationally certified medical infrastructure at par with western countries but at fraction of costs. Growing internet connectivity and remote consults have also helped medical tourists comparing global options and verifying quality standards more easily before deciding on a destination. Medical value travel is thus rising conspicuously as more countries invest in healthcare infrastructure and human capital to be preferred spots for advanced treatments.
