India takes the second place on the list of countries with the largest population. Therefore providing high-quality medical care becomes a demanding task under these circumstances. That is why the medical sector in this country is constantly being developed, improved and updated. More and more hospitals successfully undergo an accreditation process by the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals and Healthcare (NABH) and receive Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation. Private hospitals progressively become worthy competitors of the government medical sector, offering modern procedures and attractive prices. That is why present-day India is a desired destination for medical tourists.
