Patient Outsourcing through Medical Tourism
Earlier, wealthy citizens of developing countries used to visit developed countries like U.S and Europe to gain
access to advanced medical care. Of late, the ‘Medical Tourism’ wave seems to have reversed this trend. It is
now the Western patient’s turn to travel offshore for First-World healthcare at Third-world prices.

It all began about a decade ago, when patients in need of quality healthcare started looking at viable options for
medical care in ‘Medical hubs’ like India and Thailand. Exotic destinations like these were no more considered
as hide outs for recuperating from face lifts and nose jobs. Even those who needed non-elective medical
treatments began flying abroad in pursuit of quality healthcare at lower prices. Initially, medical tourism occurred
outside the purview and control of organized healthcare systems. (Read more)

Heart attack - Warning Signs
Heart attack is a leading cause of death among men and women in all parts of the world. But the good news is
85% of heart attacks do not cause death. Awareness of the symptoms relating to heart attack and timely medical
care can minimize the stress on the body due to a heart attack and even save a life. There are several causes for
a heart attack. These include hereditary factors, stress, smoking, lack of physical exercise, obesity and a
sedentary lifestyle. If you or someone you know has an increased risk of heart attack, it makes sense to
understand the symptoms or warning signs that indicate a heart attack. (Read more)

Corneal transplant to restore full vision




Corneal transplantation is a surgical procedure in which damaged or diseased cornea is replaced with donor
corneal tissue. It is alternatively known as corneal grafting or penetrating keratoplasty. Corneal transplantation is
the only means of restoring full vision of a clouded cornea. If the rest of the eye functions normally, cornea can be
transplanted and vision can be restored. Most patients who have undergone cornea transplant surgery have
reported vision restoration and high level of satisfaction with the outcome of the procedure. However, it should be
remembered that the success of the surgery depends on the extent of normalcy of other parts of the eye.
Preparing for the surgery: Your initial consultation with the surgeon should be scheduled a few weeks before the
surgery. During the consultation, the doctor makes a thorough examination of the eye to determine the health of
the eye and will tell you whether you are a good candidate for corneal transplantation or not. Ask the doctor any
questions that you have about the procedure. You may also be required to take up a couple of lab tests before
the surgery. (Read more)

Surrogacy in India-Delivering more for less!




Surrogacy gives a woman a chance to experience motherhood, when she is unable give birth by natural means.
But surrogate mothers in the U.S. cost anywhere between $50,000 to $100,000. Moreover, surrogacy is ridden
with many legal hassles in the U.S. These factors make it extremely difficult for American couples to bear
children through surrogate mothers.
However, there is hope in the form of medical tourism for couples who wish to opt for surrogacy. India, especially,
is emerging as a hub for IVF and surrogate births. More and more couples are choosing to come to India in the
hope of taking home their very own bundle of joy. Reasons for India's success in this form of reproductive
outsourcing include:

Affordable surrogacy:
The entire surrogacy process in India costs anywhere between $20,000 to $35,000 and includes doctors fees,
medicines, pre-natal care, delivery, legal charges as well as surrogate compensation. It's just one-fourth the cost
of surrogacy in U.S.
The IVF procedure, which is a part of the surrogacy process, costs around $2,500, a real steal compared to the
sky high charges in U.S. hospitals. (Read more)

The Yogic route to health and wellness




With the turn of the century, the practice of Yoga has become a rage. What began as a form of fitness in the
Eastern part of the world, has now taken the whole world by storm. Yoga has been doing rounds in the
Hollywood circuit for quite some time now. Popular Hollywood stars swear by Yoga to keep their body in shape.
Doctors all over the world recommend it to their patients and many sports persons complement their training with
Yoga.

The roots of yoga can be traced back to ancient India, where they remain strongly rooted even to this day.
Maharshi Patanjali was the first to compile the ancient practice of Yoga into his work quot;The Yoga Sutrasquot;.
However, the art of yoga was known to people since Vedic age and so says Upanishads. The system of Yoga
has not undergone much change since then, but is becoming immensely popular all over the world.

Yoga is more than just a form of exercise; it is a way of life. Beyond its obvious physical aspect, yoga has a
spiritual side to it that aims at uniting the body, mind and emotions of the person. It is for this reason that the
practice of yoga is far superior than other forms of fitness. (Read more)

destinations like India for both surgical and elective procedures. The technological advancement of healthcare
system in India and the expertise of healthcare professionals in India have made the country a significant player

percentage of medical tourists travelling to India seek elective procedures like Rhinoplasty in order to improve
their appearance or to correct some defect in the nasal region. (Read more)

Glaucoma- The silent thief of vision.




Glaucoma is the leading cause for blindness, especially among elder people and is hence referred to as quot;The
silent thief of visionquot;. According to the World Health Organization, Glaucoma is the third largest cause for
blindness worldwide. It is responsible for blindness in 5.2 million people across the globe.

Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve. It is caused due to increased intraocular pressure (IOP) resulting in
either a malformation or malfunctioning in the eye's drainage structures. Glaucoma can damage the nerve fibers

Dental Surgery in India for Impacted/Wisdom tooth




An impacted tooth refers to any tooth that that is prevented attaining its normal position in the mouth. The most
common impacted teeth are the third molars or wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth, otherwise known as third molars,
are the last set of teeth to develop. They are located in the back of the mouth, near the opening of the throat.
Often, a person's jaw does not grow large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth. Under such circumstances the
tooth, which does not have room to come out fails to emerge in proper alignment or gets entrapped between the
jaw bone and gum tissue. (Read more)
