Middle East: Being a Gateway into the Middle East, with excellent flight connections into almost every city in India, accessibility to World class Healthcare facilities in India is a mere three - four hours away from GCC. UAE and other GCC Countries is home to more than a million Non Resident Indians, who form a ready made market to Indian healthcare facilities, especially in the non insured category who find Good Healthcare being nearly three times the cost of medical treatment in India. The need also arises due to very strong family connections in India and familiar food habits.

Money is the Primary motive, saving of 50 - 90% is almost guaranteed, while moving to India for medical care.Dr. Milica Bookman, Professor of Economics at St. Joseph’s University and author of the book "Medical Tourism in developing Countries", while doing a research on the economic impact of medical tourism.
