Title

MEDICAL TOURISM: BETWEEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AND BIOETHICS BOUNDARIES: NARRATIVE REVIEW ARTICLE

Pages

  406-414

Abstract

 Nowadays, MEDICAL TOURISM reports impressive growth in terms of number of persons, income and number of countries involved in cross-border flows. So this study was undertaken to clarify ENTREPRENEURSHIP opportunities and bio-ethics boundaries in MEDICAL TOURISM. For tourism entrepreneurs, these outgoing flows related to medical procedures and tourism become an opportunity that cannot be ignored, so a wide range of tourist services related to health care are provided on a private, entrepreneurial basis. However, social and economic boundaries are omnipresent (impaired health services in receiving (incoming) countries, the crisis of the health care systems in emitting (outgoing) countries, over-consumption of medical and tourism services), and, not least, ethical considerations. Transforming medical care in a MARKET tool, reducing human attributes to the status of commodity that can be bought, sold or negotiated, seriously challenges contemporary bioethics principles. It is a significant entering in the area (which is essentially un-ethic) of MARKET transactions, where libertarianism and consumer-oriented attitudes dominates the spectrum of rational choice. So tourism comes to provide an organized and comfortable framework for all these choices, but many issues still re-main controversial and may worsen if national health systems and national and international regulations would not identify their problems and would continue to leave MEDICAL TOURISM to MARKET mechanisms. MARKET will efficiently allocate the resources, but not always in an ethical manner.
