India's choice as a preferred destination for medical tourism has been helped by the government offering the special 'M' Visa to medical tourists - the visas are valid for a year and are issued for companions too.

The Indian government is taking steps to address infrastructure issues to help the country's growth in medical tourism.
The government has removed restrictions on tourist visas that require a two-month gap between consecutive visits for people from Gulf countries which is likely to boost medical tourism.

A visa-on-arrival scheme for tourists from select countries has been instituted that allows foreign nationals to stay in India for 30 days for medical reasons. Most estimates claim treatment costs in India start at around a tenth
of the price of comparable treatment in America or Britain.

The most popular treatments sought in India by medical tourists are alternative medicine, bone-marrow transplant, cardiac bypass, eye surgery and hip replacement.
