The Thai Medical Tourism Association (TMTA) has joined The Asia Medical Travel Council (AMTRAC) as a pioneer founding member.
TMTA will make up one of five of the AMTRAC regional bloc members, the first bloc of its kind in the world, which eventually is planned to comprise four other prominent Asian countries that have demonstrated great strides towards the advancement of the medical travel industry backed by internationally accredited medical institutions and highly qualified medical specialists.
AMTRAC’s vision is to ultimately show the world that its member countries are able to offer safe and affordable medical treatment comparable to the best in the west and collectively raise the visibility of Asian medical travel destinations in an increasingly crowded medical travel market.
Wilson Tan, founder of AMTRAC said: “This truly marks an exciting time for Asia in the medical travel space. TMTA will be a valuable member of AMTRAC as the other AMTRAC members can learn how it has succeeded in achieving the right balance of medical skills and expertise."
The objectives of the Pan-Asian alliance are: · To aid AMTRAC members to become recognized as top medical travel destinations. · To help raise professional standard of medical specialists and healthcare providers. · To provide a single platform for medical facilitators to learn, update and network with other member service providers. · To develop a higher degree of patient confidence and awareness in medical practitioners and facilities in the Asian region. · To facilitate a forum for the exchange of views on topical issues facing the medical travel industry in Asia. · To achieve global recognition as the #1 medical travel event in Asia by organising annual AMTRAC Conference and Exhibitions. · To develop active corporate social responsibility and charity programs that give back to the community.
AMTRAC is working to include India, Malaysia, South Korea and Singapore as the remaining four founding members. Shortly after, this will be followed by an official launch ceremony in the second half of 2013.
