  • 台灣醫療旅遊群聚


    Medical Tourism is an emerging phenomenon wherein patients travel across national borders to receive medical treatment. The medical tourism is recently one of the fastest-growing industries around the world, with healthcare tourism in Asia rising at more than 20% per year. It is estimated that this industry’s revenue will rise from about US$60 billion in 2006 to about US$100 billion worldwide by 2012. For the benefit of economic growth and the development of the medical industry, Taiwan where medical care can be delivered with high medical quality and technology at reasonable cost, wants a slice of this pie and endeavors to become a global medical tourism hub.

    .Aim of this thesis is to provide a descriptive and analytical overview of Taiwan medical tourism cluster and its potential for growth in the global medical tourism. The cluster and Porter’s diamond analysis of Taiwan medical tourism clarifies that successful development of healthcare and tourism clusters, individually and jointly, is crucial to gain competitive advantage in Asia.
