Medical tourism is no longer just an alternative; it’s become a major global trend. More and more people are choosing international destinations to access aesthetic and wellness procedures that offer high quality standards, personalized care, and competitive prices. In this landscape, Colombia stands out as an undisputed leader in Latin America.
What is medical tourism
Medical tourism involves traveling to another country with the purpose of receiving medical care. This is generally done for reasons of cost-effectiveness, quality of care, or specialized treatment. This industry has evolved from being a marginal option to becoming a global phenomenon.
Why is medical tourism growing?
According to the Medical Tourism Association, the global medical tourism market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%, reaching an estimated $180 billion by 2026. Among the factors driving this growth are:
Rising healthcare costs in developed countries- Access to specialized care and cutting-edge technology in other countries.
Shorter waiting lists.- Greater air connectivity and digital access to healthcare providers.
- trend towards integrated medical experiences with holistic wellness and recovery.
