Medical Tourism in India: What Every Bangladeshi Family Should Know

India has become a world hub for health care, and the appeal goes beyond being close to families in Bangladesh. Medical tourism in India is changing how Bangladeshi patients make important health choices because of its world-class treatment options, low costs, and easy travel procedures.

If you or someone you care about wants medical care in India, read this. It was put together by Medtriplanner, a well-known company that helps Bangladeshi people get treatments in other countries.

Why Should You Get Medical Care in India?

India's healthcare system consists of government-recognized hospitals, experienced doctors, and new tools. Its services are just as good as those in the US, UK, and Singapore, but they cost a lot less.

India has a lot of different types of hospitals and doctors that can help with everything from cancer to heart surgery to kidney transplants to IVF to orthopaedics to neurosurgery. Now, places like Chennai, Bangalore, Delhi, Kolkata, and Mumbai are known as medical hubs around the world.

For patients from Bangladesh, the extra perks are:

• No problem with language: Most hospitals have managers who speak Bengali.
• Halal meals, family-friendly lodging, and religious buildings are all examples of familiar culture and food.
• Short appointments: faster planning of evaluation and treatment.
• Treatments that Bangladeshi patients often choose in India
• Medical tourists from Bangladesh mostly come to get treatment for cancer, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy (IMRT, IGRT), robotic surgeries, and bone marrow donations.
• Angioplasty, bypass surgery, and valve replacement are all types of cardiology and heart surgeries.
• Urology and nephrology: kidney transplants, dialysis, and treatments for the prostate.
• Orthopaedic and spine care includes replacing joints, fusing the spine, and fixing scoliosis.
• IVF and infertility: IVF centres that are among the best in the world use the latest technology.
• Neurology and neurosurgery: removal of brain tumours, treatment of seizures, and surgery for Parkinson's disease.

India has success rates that are on par with the best in the world, especially when it comes to complicated treatments like heart and bone marrow transplants.

How Much Does Treatment Cost in India Compared to Bangladesh or the West?

The biggest advantage India offers is affordability, without compromising on quality. Cancer Treatment costs in India can be up to 70% lower than those in Western countries and often more affordable than private hospitals in Bangladesh.

Medtriplanner ensures that all pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees, and provides pre-arrival cost estimates to help families plan better.

True Story of a Patient: A Way to Find Hope

She is 38 years old and has breast cancer. Her name is Asma Khatun.

Coming from Khulna, Bangladesh

Where the treatment takes place: Apollo Hospitals, Chennai

"We called Medtriplanner after being told that I needed surgery and treatment right away. In just three days, I had a live chat with an oncologist in India. They took care of my visa, plane tickets, and a place to stay. I was lucky to have India and Medtriplanner save my life. Now I don't have cancer.’’

As word gets out about India's strong medical system, more and more stories like Asma's are being told.

Things to Keep in Mind Before Going Away for Treatment

• Check Your Diagnoses: Bring along your most current medical records, scans, and prescriptions.
• Plan Ahead: Make sure you have a place to stay and all of your meetings set up before you leave.
• Take a Translator or coordinator with you: Someone who can speak both English and Bangla would be great.
• Talk about Costs Right Away: know all the costs that could come up (for tests, drugs, stay, etc.).

If you want to know your rights, ask for a second opinion and clear paperwork before any treatments. Medtriplanner takes care of these things so you can concentrate on getting better instead of planning your trip.
