Company reference (companies + values / notes)
Notes: where a company’s full-year, company-level revenue is given I cite it; where the company reports international-patient metrics I include those instead. Numbers are the most recently reported (FY/Q) in public filings or reputable press reports.
Company / platform | Recent company-level revenue / relevant metric (source) | How they participate in medical tourism |
---|---|---|
Bangkok Dusit Medical Services (BDMS) | Consolidated operating income / revenue reporting in FY24–FY25; international patients ≈ ~26–28% of patient mix / strong YoY growth in ME & Europe (BDMS MD&A & investor materials). | Thailand’s largest private hospital group — major hub for medical tourists (cardio, oncology, cosmetic, dental). |
Bumrungrad International (Thailand) | Reported ~643,000 international medical episodes (2024); company-level notes on international patient revenue in investor reporting. | One of Asia’s most-recognised medical-tourism hospitals (JCI accredited, multi-specialty). |

Market size & forecasts (high-level)
Selected market estimates vary by publisher:
Grand View Research: Market estimated ~USD 31.09 billion (2024) and projected to reach ~USD 87.33 billion by 2030 (CAGR ~18–19% 2025–2030).
ResearchAndMarkets / others: Example projection — USD 92.63B in 2025 and faster growth scenarios in some niche reports (CAGRs vary widely by vendor, common range ~10–20% for 2024–2029 depending on scope).
Bottom line: published market sizes differ because of methodology (what’s included — tourism + wellness + facilitation fees vs. only medical procedure spend). Use multiple vendor assumptions when modeling.
Recent developments (2023–2025)
Post-pandemic recovery of cross-border patient flows accelerated in 2023–2024, with 2024–2025 seeing strong international patient rebound in Thailand, India and Mexico (but with regional variability). Examples: BDMS and Bumrungrad reported strong international patient volumes in 2024–25.
Greater involvement of large hospital groups (BDMS, Apollo) in deliberate international-patient growth strategies and capacity expansion (beds, Centres of Excellence).
Rising scrutiny and calls for regulation in certain segments (e.g., bariatric / cosmetic surgery tourism) after adverse outcomes in some source countries.
Key drivers
Cost differentials (substantially lower prices for many procedures vs. developed-country prices).
Long wait times and capacity constraints in source markets (e.g., NHS waitlists, specialist backlogs) pushing patients overseas.
Rapid expansion of private hospital capacity and capabilities in destination countries (JCI accreditation, Centers of Excellence).
Digital lead generation & teleconsultation simplifying pre-travel diagnostics and case triage (platforms + hospital telemedicine).
Major restraints
Regulatory / medico-legal risk & continuity of care (post-op follow-up across borders remains a pain point).
Quality variability and accreditation gaps — patients need trusted accreditation and verified outcomes.
Geopolitical / travel & visa issues and short-term shocks to tourism flows (e.g., 2025 drops in visitor arrivals in some countries).
Regional segmentation (high-level)
Asia (Thailand, India, Singapore, South Korea, Turkey) — major hubs for affordability + specialist centers (Thailand and India large inbound flows; BDMS, Bumrungrad, Apollo cited).
Latin America (Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia) — strong inbound from U.S. for dental, bariatric and elective surgeries.
Europe (Spain, Turkey) — Spain and Turkey attract Europeans and MENA patients (orthopedics, aesthetics); Turkey strong in cosmetic and hair-transplant segments.
North America — source market large (outbound patients) and also a destination for high-end care (e.g., specialty centers).
Emerging trends
Concierge / bundled recovery tourism (medical procedure + recovery + tourism packages).
Accreditation and insurer partnerships — payers and international insurers increasingly engaging with accredited providers for outbound care.
Digital triage and remote follow-up / telemedicine to improve continuity and reduce risks.
Top use cases (most common procedures)
Elective cosmetic & aesthetic surgery (including hair transplants).
Dental procedures (Mexico, Costa Rica, Eastern Europe).
Bariatric surgery and weight-loss procedures.
Cardiac, orthopaedic and oncology referral cases to centers of excellence.
Fertility / IVF services and specialized reproductive treatments.
Major challenges (industry pain points)
Post-operative care & medico-legal continuity — complications require local systems for follow-up.
Trust / transparency — patients need clear outcomes data and verified accreditation.
Data protection & cross-border health records interoperability.
Attractive opportunities
Software & platform play — teletriage, outcome registries, remote monitoring, insurer integrations (high margin, scalable).
Bundled recovery & wellness offers (recovery hotels, rehab, tourism add-ons).
Regional specialization clusters — e.g., Turkey for cosmetic and hair, Mexico for dental and bariatric, Thailand for multi-specialty hospitality.
Key factors for market expansion
Improved accreditation, outcomes transparency and insurer engagement — reduces patient risk perception.
Lower end-to-end travel friction (visas, flights, telemedicine pre-checks) — easier patient journeys increase volumes.
Continued private-hospital capacity expansion and Centres of Excellence in destination markets.
Short, actionable takeaways
If you’re building a comparable model pick 2–3 market-size sources (Grand View, ResearchAndMarkets, local country reports) and create a low/mid/high scenario — methodology and inclusions vary widely.
For competitive benchmarking, start with hospital groups that report international patient metrics (BDMS, Bumrungrad, Apollo, Grupo Ángeles, Acibadem) and facilitator platforms (PlacidWay, Bookimed, Mespoir). Use hospital investor filings for the most reliable international-patient KPIs.
Watch regulatory & post-op continuity risk (especially for bariatric/cosmetic tourism) — this can affect insurance partnerships and source-market referrals.
