...Medical Tourism-A Ray of Hope By R.V.Naveenan,Asst.Prof, T.John Institute of Management and Science Ph:9486129730,Email:naveenan.08mba@gmail.com Abstract Medical tourism is broadly defined as the act of traveling to obtain medical care in another country or region of the same country where specialized or economical medical care is available complemented with wellbeing and recuperation of acceptable quality with the help of support system. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines medical tourism as tourism associated with travel to health spas or resort destinations where the primary purpose is to improve traveler’s physical wellbeing through a process comprising physical exercises and therapy, dietary control, and medical services relevant to health maintenance. India has become a destination of choice for patients from all hemispheres as the destination of choice for a wide range of medical services and surgical procedures. In addition to the tangible expertise of medical and nursing staff, allied health services staff, the intangible compassionate care of support services staff draws patients to tertiary care hospitals in India. Equally important is the lower cost of world class treatment at a fraction of what it costs in the Western or so-called developed countries. In addition, there is no waiting period for any of the major surgical interventional procedures in the corporate hospitals in India. There are several dynamic internal and external factors which hinder medical...

...Economic Outlook, Prospects, and Policy Challenges 01 CHAPTER This year’s Economic Survey comes at a time of unusual volatility in the international economic environment. Markets have begun to swing on fears that the global recovery may be faltering, while risks of extreme events are rising. Amidst this gloomy landscape, India stands out as a haven of stability and an outpost of opportunity. Its macro-economy is stable, founded on the government’s commitment to fiscal consolidation and low inflation. Its economic growth is amongst the highest in the world, helped by a reorientation of government spending toward needed public infrastructure. These achievements are remarkable not least because they have been accomplished in the face of global headwinds and a second successive season of poor rainfall. The task now is to sustain them in an even more difficult global environment. This will require careful economic management. As regards monetary and liquidity policy, the benign outlook for inflation, widening output gaps, the uncertainty about the growth outlook and the over-indebtedness of the corporate sector all imply that there is room for easing. Fiscal consolidation continues to be vital, and will need to maintain credibility and reduce debt, in an uncertain global environment, while sustaining growth. On the government’s “reformto-transform” agenda, a series of measures, each incremental but collectively meaningful have been enacted. There have also...

What we do is we sell one Guide billions and billions of times. We exploit the multidimensional nature of the Universe to cut down on manufacturing costs. And we don’t sell to penniless hitchhikers. What a stupid notion that was! Find the one section of the market that, more or less by definition, doesn’t have any money, and try to sell to it. No. We sell to the affluent business traveler and his vacationing wife in a billion, billion different futures. This is the most radical, dynamic and thrusting business venture in the entire multidimensional infinity of space-time-probability ever.” ... Ford was completely at a loss for what to do next. “Look,” he said in a stern voice. But he wasn’t certain how far saying things like “Look” in a stern voice was necessarily going to get him, and time was not on his side. What the hell, he thought, you’re only young once, and threw himself out of the window. That would at least keep the element of surprise on his side. ... In a spirit of scientific inquiry he hurled himself out of the window again. Douglas Adams Mostly Harmless Strangely, the thing that least intrigued me was how they’d managed to get it all done. I suppose I sort of knew. If I’d learned...
