内容説明
The authors take a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach to examine key issues of the cross border movement of patients. State-of-the-art analysis is underpinned by extensive country studies. An essential read for policy makers, regulators, practitioners and students who want to understand, influence and shape this key dimension of the globalisation of health.'
- Nick Drager, Honorary Professor LSHTM, Professor of Practice McGill University, Canada'Lunt, Horsfall and Hanefield have brought together the world's leading scholars in the field for this Handbook. Collectively, they chart the course for medical tourism research in covering an exhaustive range of topics. This book is rich in both the breadth and depth of information offered in a time where medical tourism is of increasing importance to the global and domestic health policy and service provision landscape. The editors have done a superb job of steering the contributors and piecing together the various sections of the book to produce a coherent and, what is likely to become, definitive work. It will be essential reading for anyone with interests in the subject.'
- Robin Gauld, University of Otago, New Zealand
The growth of international travel for purposes of medical treatment has been accompanied by increased academic research and analysis. This Handbook explores the emergence of medical travel and patient mobility and the implications for patients and health systems.
Bringing together leading scholars and analysts from across the globe, this unprecedented Handbook examines the regional and national experiences of medical tourism, including coverage of the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The chapters explore topics on issues of risk, law and ethics; and include treatment-focused discussions which highlight patient decision-making, patient experience and treatment outcomes for cosmetic, transplantation, dental, fertility and bariatric treatment.
Students, practitioners and researchers of global health policy, health and globalization, international business, travel medicine and health ethics will find the subjects discussed to be of considerable interest.
