The Indian state of Maharashtra will set up a new medical tourism promotion council to tap the potential of this lucrative sector.
The aim is to support tie-ups between hospitals and hotels, so the state can attract more medical tourists for cosmetic surgery, dentistry, fertility treatment, plus orthopaedic and cardiac surgery
20,000 medical tourists go to the state, mostly to Mumbai, but many travel there only to go on to other states for treatment. Most are from the Middle East.
The aim of the new body is to help the state market Maharashtra’s medical tourism facilities, and seek to deal with the insurance payment issues that arise in Middle Eastern countries.
