Abstract:
This article examines the challenges and opportunities related to financial accessibility within the medical tourism industry. In recent years, medical tourism has emerged as a popular solution for international patients seeking high-quality healthcare services at affordable prices. However, financial issues and a lack of awareness regarding available options can act as significant barriers for patients. This study utilizes a literature review and analysis of recent academic articles to explore various financial strategies in different countries, the importance of educating patients about financial options, and provides recommendations for improving financial conditions within the industry. The results indicate that the absence of comprehensive insurance policies and a lack of pricing transparency can lead to reduced access and patient satisfaction. Additionally, offering flexible payment options and financial counseling can assist patients in making better decisions, ultimately enhancing their treatment experiences. Based on this analysis, recommendations for stakeholders include the development of comprehensive insurance policies, improved pricing transparency, and the utilization of digital platforms for patient education.
