The U.S. medical tourism market size is anticipated to reach USD 12.9 billion by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 8.7%, based on a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Improvements in healthcare technology and high standards of healthcare attract patients from other developed as well as developing countries to travel to U.S. for availing care pertaining to complex healthcare issues, including cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Facilities in other countries may not maintain accreditation or provider licensure. Hence, medical tourists prefer U.S. for healthcare to avail the highest care quality.

Most patients pay for treatment at time of service. The U.S. medical tourists travelling to other countries often rely on healthcare concierge services or private companies to identify healthcare facilities to suit their specific requirements. A few health insurance providers and large-scale employers in U.S. collaborate with hospitals outside the country to control employee healthcare costs.
