EXPLORING THE PHENOMENON OF MEDICAL TOURISM IN RAJASTHAN: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES

Kritika Sharma

Medical tourism, the practice of traveling to another country for medical treatment, has gained considerable momentum in recent years. Rajasthan, a vibrant state in India known for its rich culture, historical landmarks, and diverse landscapes, has emerged as a sought- after destination for medical tourism. One major factor driving the popularity of medical tourism is the increasing cost of healthcare in many countries. In certain regions, medical procedures can be incredibly expensive, leading individuals to seek more affordable options elsewhere. By traveling to destinations with lower healthcare costs, patients can access high quality medical treatments at a fraction of the price they would pay in their own country. Another reason for the rise in medical tourism is the long waiting times for medical procedures in some countries’ healthcare system. Advancement in technology and transportation have also played a significant role in the popularity of medical tourism. This research paper aims to delve into the factor contributing to Rajasthan’s appeal as a medical tourism hub, as well as the associated opportunities and challenges.
