Medical tourism in countries has generated economic income, expanded GDP, increased employment, prevented brain drain, and improved infrastructure. Iran also has significant capacities in this field due to the cheapness of its medical services compared to other countries, the existence of specialized and modern medical forces. However, the existence of problems and issues such as poor planning, managerial weaknesses and other factors have caused medical tourism in Iran is not in a good position.
