New Delhi, Oct 02 (ANI): A weak rupee coupled with a range of quality healthcare options focussed on providing hassle free healing experience to the foreign patients is driving a boom in India's medical tourism industry. The study conducted by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry (ASSOCHAM) said the fall in the rupee has made medical treatment cheaper for foreign patients by nearly 25-30 percent and has also led to a spur in the number of foreign patients arriving in India over the past six months. The overseas patients come to India for complex surgeries involving the chest, the intestines, and transplantation of organs or replacement of the joints.
