India is increasingly important in the international industry of medical tourism, also known as health tourism. By 2020, the medical tourism industry in India will more than double its current revenues of US $ 3 billion to US $ 8 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 15.6%.
Indeed, foreign nationals in need of complicated treatments, surgeries and operations are increasingly choosing India as a destination for affordable prices and high quality medical services. In 2015, around 500,000 foreign nationals visited India for medical care.
