Global Healthcare Mobility Update
July 2026 Breakthrough: Cross-border medical travel volumes have surged following the newly released Travel And Tour World (TTW) 2026 Rankings, which officially crowned Turkey, Thailand, and India as the world's top three medical tourism destinations. According to the latest global data, Turkey holds an impressive 62% market share for platform-booked treatments—driven heavily by hair restoration and advanced cosmetic surgery—while Thailand dominates in specialized cardiology and orthopedic care.
