Addressing Global Health Goals With AI-Enhanced Medical Tourism

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping medical tourism into a strategic pathway for advancing global health goals. It enhances clinical decision-making, improves patient experience, increases cost efficiency, and strengthens cross-border continuity of care. At the same time, it raises critical ethical, regulatory, and sustainability challenges that must be carefully addressed. Integrating technological innovation with global health perspectives provides a more comprehensive understanding of these developments. AI-driven medical tourism offers new opportunities for more equitable, high-quality, and accessible healthcare worldwide. Addressing Global Health Goals With AI-Enhanced Medical Tourism critically examines how AI can be integrated into medical tourism to advance global health goals, while extending and enriching existing scholarship in healthcare innovation, health systems, and international patient mobility. By synthesizing current research, global health agendas, and real-world applications, this book moves beyond descriptive accounts of medical tourism and offers evidence-informed insights into how AI can improve access, quality, efficiency, and continuity of care across borders. Covering topics such as accountability in cross-border healthcare, edge computing in patient care, and AR and VR for medical solutions, this book is an excellent academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, healthcare administrators, hospital managers, medical tourism facilitators, digital health professionals, policymakers, public health officials, and more.
