尽管全球经济不景气,但仍有足够的信息显示,多个国家的医疗旅游业并未受到过多冲击,反而悄然成为增长最快的新兴行业。德国作为世界第一大旅游国,在继续以其文化历史吸引世界各地的爱好者以外,近年来也开始努力吸引“医疗旅游者”的到来,并将目标瞄准了正在崛起的中国市场。
据德国媒体报道,在过去的一年里,前往拥有世界上最好医疗体系的德国看病的“游客”虽仅占赴德游客总数的1%,但数量上呈明显上涨趋势。对此,德国旅游中心负责人裴德拉·贺德芙表示:“目前这个领域我们才刚刚开始发展,相信以后会有越来越多的外国人在德国"旅游就医"。”裴德拉·贺德芙指出,中国人在未来将成为德国这个领域的一大消费群体。
据最近刚刚到访过中国的裴德拉介绍,目前中国游客对德国保有很高的热情,中国到德国旅游的人数正持续上涨。不过,裴德拉也表示,目前德国往往只向旅游者发放短期旅游签证,这有可能成为“旅游就医”的一大阻力。她以日前美国承诺给中国游客五年签证的改革作为例子表示,中国游客赴德旅游签证政策也应放宽。
在全球范围内,除了德国以外,马来西亚、泰国、印度、新加坡、菲律宾等国家都在努力瓜分这块“蛋糕”,为吸引医疗旅游者的到来而考虑放宽签证要求的国家也不在少数。印度政府对参与医疗旅游服务出口的医院实行税收减免,并放松医疗旅游签证的签发。日本政府亦大力推广新设立的“医疗签证”,以吸引更多中国人去日本进行治疗和体检。设立医疗签证主要为吸引以中国为主的亚洲富裕阶层,有效期可长达三年,并可申请多次往返,陪护者也可获得同类签证随行赴日。此外,新加坡政府成立了由多个机构联合组建的新加坡国际医疗,目标是将新加坡发展为亚洲最大的国际医疗旅游目的地。 有
业内人士分析称,不少国家积极推进医疗旅游事业,源于其背后的经济推力。有数据显示,一个医疗旅游者平均约能带来1万美元的收益,全球每年医疗旅游的市场份额则在1000亿美元左右,过去一年全世界约有600万人到本国以外的地方寻求医疗服务。除此之外,医疗旅游业还在带动一个国家的酒店、餐饮、交通、法律等行业的发展上起到了积极作用,因为这些患者不只把钱花在医院里,同时还需要在商场以及酒店里消费,而且“医疗旅游”者往往要比普通旅游者逗留时间长,花费也随之增多。

Re: The person who made the statement that this was a good internet site truly needs to possess their brain looked at.
An cool blog post right there mate . Cheers for that .
I experimented with taking a look at your blog in my blackberry and the design does not seem to be right. Might want to check it out on WAP as well as it seems most cellphone layouts are not working with your web site.
Strange , this post turns up with a dark hue to it, what color is the primary color on your site?
Hey there, I just hopped over to your site thru StumbleUpon. Not somthing I would generally browse, but I appreciated your thoughts none the less. Thanks for making something well worth browsing.
After I start your Rss feed it seems to be a ton of junk, is the problem on my part?
It appears to me that this site doesnt load up on a Motorola Droid. Are other folks having the same problem? I like this web site and dont want to have to miss it whenever Im gone from my computer.
This blog has got a lot of really useful info on it! Thanks for informing me.
quite valuable stuff, all round I picture this is worthy of a book mark, thanks a lot
Amazing article, thank you, I will subscribe to you RSS soon.
Jesus Christ theres lots of spammy comments on this web site. Have you ever before believed about attempting to eliminate them or installing a plugin?
Jesus Christ there is a lot of spammy feedback on this site. Have you actually thought about trying to eliminate them or installing a tool?
Just discovered this blog thru Bing, what a way to brighten up my week!
How come you dont have your website viewable in wap format? Can not see anything in my iPhone.
I have got 1 suggestion for your weblog. It seems like right now there are a handful of cascading stylesheet problems when launching a selection of web pages within google chrome as well as firefox. It is operating alright in internet explorer. Probably you can double check that.
Dude. This site is amazing! How did you make it look this good !?
While I really like this post, I believe there was an punctuational error shut to the end with the third sentence.
I was basically curious about if you ever thought of switching the page layout of your blog? Its well written; I really like what you have got to say. But maybe you could add a little more in the way of written content so people could connect to it better. You have got an awful lot of text for only having one or two photographs. Maybe you could space it out better?
Although I truly like this post, I believe there was an punctuational error near towards the end of your 3rd section.
This blog has got a lot of extremely useful info on it! Cheers for helping me.
