영문 초록

In Korea s medical tourism industry, the United States is the second largest country following China. In the case of American patients, the proportion of patients receiving severe treatment is higher than that of foreign patients of other nationalities. Many patients visit Korea to receive rehabilitation treatment in medical services such as cancer surgery, treatment, and transplant surgery, and relatively simple surgeries such as LASIK and rhinitis surgery are also found. Recently, the number of U.S. patients visiting Korea in connection with private insurance companies in the U.S. is increasing, and it seems that they are visiting Korea due to high medical expenses in the country. However, neighboring countries such as Canada, the UK, Costa Rica, as well as emerging medical tourism powers such as the UK, Spain, Israel, and Abu Dhabi are not yet prioritizing Korea as a medical tourist destination.

Accordingly, the aim is to come up with more effective solutions so that U.S. patients can visit Korea as travel destinations to revitalize medical tourism, additional services, and necessary tourism services
