Learn medical tourism quality, legal, cultural and ethical issues Masterclass with Dr Prem

As medical tourism grows worldwide, it is imperative to focus more on quality, legal, cultural and ethical issues. Social and cultural mosaic is different in different countries and so are the patients. The course aims to equip medical tourism service providers, companies and also patients with specific knowledge and tools that will help in mitigating confusion and conflicts likely to arise from these issues.

Quality continues to top the priority list of patients but that also has a wide variation based on many factors. Poor knowledge and perception of legal, cultural and ethical issues project a bad image of the service providers especially those handling multi-cultural patients. For patients, it can be disastrous at times.
