27th until 29th of April 2011 in Barcelona, Spain.
Connecting people to global health solutionsSpain is the most advanced and visited country in the Mediterranean for medical travel. Now this market can look to expand by capitalising on the trend towards free medical choice across European borders. Medical travel can play an important role as a stabilizing factor for the European healthcare development. We expect for Barcelona 350 to 400 participants and more than 40 exhibitors.
Here are more reasons why we expect so many participants in Barcelona:
• US healthcare reform will facilitate treatment abroad for US citizens. In Barcelona we will have as a partner several organisations and networks from the US.
• The EU Patient Mobility Directive makes a big progress and we expect a full liberalization for next year. We have to discuss the impacts and offer a panel with politicians at minister level.
• China is growing as a potential market and EMTC has partnered with the Chinese Medical Tourism Association .
• Spa Resorts and Medical Wellness a growth area everywhere but especially in Spain.
• International Centres for Medical Tourism will present themselves and are looking for sustainable cooperation with facilitators.
Join this international and unique platform, standing for quality, innovation and transparency in Medical Travel and Health Tourism.
