Book Description

The health tourism sector, which is located at the intersection of the health sector and the tourism sector, has sub-branches such as medical tourism, thermal tourism, spa and wellness tourism, elderly and disabled health tourism, and our country has shown a significant development especially in the field of medical tourism in recent years. Health tourism law is an interdisciplinary field of law that is in relation with many main legal disciplines such as health law, private international law, law of obligations, criminal law and administrative law.

The fact that the health tourism sector, which is subject to extremely strict formal requirements and supervision conditions due to the fact that it covers a sensitive area such as health services, is also one of the foreign currency earning service export sectors, has brought along the encouragement of the sector and the support of health facilities and intermediary organisations carrying out health tourism activities by the state. In this context, there are many incentives, supports and tax advantages for the organisations operating in this sector.

In the book; types and characteristics of health tourism, sources of health tourism law, competence criteria of health facilities and intermediary institutions that will operate in the field of health tourism, contractual relations between the parties involved in the health tourism process and the rights and obligations of the parties, rules and limitations regarding the promotion and advertising activities for international health tourists, support programmes and incentives provided by the state regarding health tourism are discussed.
