9. SWOT Analysis of Medical Tourism
 Indian doctors are recognized as amongst the best at
international levels; skillful, qualified, share information
with patients and are readily available, whenever
required.
 High quality treatment in low cost.
 Medical technology, equipment, facilities and
infrastructure are at par with international standards.
 Doctors and staff good at English which makes it
comfortable for tourists from English speaking countries.
 Foreigners are also attracted to Indian Systems of
Medicine like Ayurveda, Yoga.
Strength

10.  As of 2011, India only had 19 JCI and 63 NABH
accredited hospitals which decreases the size of
potential market especially for customers from
developed countries.
 Though the Cost of treatment is less in India, other
costs like accommodation may prove to be inhibitive,
especially for customers from low income economies.
 Maximum medical tourist is from non English
speaking parts of the world which highlights the need
for training of linguists for example specialists of
Arabic.
Weakness

11.  Employers in US are looking for ways to decrease
their employees medical expenses providing
appropriate health coverage concurrently.
Employers will look for low cost care in India and
other Asian countries.
 The medical care facilities in other South Asian
countries are also not up to the mark. Patients from
these countries find good quality care in
neighborhood, where travel time as well as the
cultural divide is less.
 Countries that operate public health-care systems
are often so taxed that it can take considerable time
to get non-urgent medical care.
Opportunities

12.  Lack of infrastructure and visa problems.
 High competition from other Asian countries
like Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia etc.
