Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala Tourism Development Corporation is working out a medical tourism package, seeking to
cash in on growing worldwide interest in the state as an ideal destination to combine treatment with holidaying. The scheme is being evolved as a collaborative venture of superspeciality hospitals, foreign tour operators and state agencies, KTDC Chairman Cheriyan Philip said in a press release here today.
The greatest attraction of Kerala is that the treatment cost would be much less for a range of health probelems, including those related to the heart, nerves, bones and eyes, compared to U.S.A., European countries or Gulf, he said.
KTDC would make arrangements for medical tourists to stay in its hotels in prime locations like Munnar and the state capital at
affordable rates. Besides allopathic hospitals, a string of Ayrvedic spas have also come up across the state offering traditional oil therapy and massage for a variety of physical problems. PTI
