Abstract or Introduction
This work focusses on ethics in medical tourism. Medical tourism is an emerging form of tourism that provides people with an opportunity to pursue medical care abroad. Initially, medical tourism involved patients travelling from third world countries to developed countries to seek a treatment that is not accessible in their native country. Medical tourists normally visit other nations so that they can receive healthcare at an affordable cost than what they would have to pay if they pursued the same treatment in their country. The popularity of medical tourism has acquired the significant consideration of researchers, policymakers and the media. In fact, the attention has been majorly focused on how this industry upholds the moral code.
