> The Medical Tourism Market Report: 2015 found that India was "one of the lowest cost and highest quality of all medical tourism destinations, it offers wide variety of procedures at about one-tenth the cost of similar procedures in the United States."
medical tourism is a multi-billion dollar industry in India with American and European patients accounting for the largest share.
I'm not talking about cutting edge research here. Possibly there's no comparison there. But I'm talking about something that's practical, applicable and real medical care.
Any data to support your claim? From my anecdotal experience, having lived in both the India and the US, I haven't ever felt that there was anything lacking in terms of receiving world class healthcare in India.
It is common for underdogs to claim they are world-class, and if you don't have the experience to know better, you might believe it.
