ITB Berlin 2019 pushes medical tourism

For the third year, ITB Berlin 2019 will offer a platform for the medical tourism segment, recognising it as an important fast-growing market.

The focus in the Medical Tourism Pavilion will be on medical service providers, and for hotels and destinations to present their products and services. The adjacent Presentation Hub will invite visitors to follow presentations, workshops and discussions on medical tourism, to find out more about the latest trends and developments in this growth market.

ITB Berlin recognises there are different reasons for people to travel for medical reasons including for higher quality care and services; reduced costs of cross-border medical treatment; medical treatment combined with attractive destinations and treatment and medication not approved or available in the home country.

ITB Berlin 2019 will be taking place from 6-10 March at the Berlin ExpoCenter City.
