Economical treatment costs do not mean lower quality or less qualified doctors.

The reason medicare is cheaper in India is because of much lower living costs in India when compared to Europe or U.S.A. - a dinner that would cost $ 20 in the U.S.A. would cost only a third in India. These lower costs of living also translate into lower costs of medical treatment.

Indian hospitals use the same top notch diagnostic and surgical equipment ( made by, for e.g., multinationals like Siemens, Philips and G.E ) that hospitals overseas do. All critical consumables are imported or made in India to world standards.
