Turkey continues to strengthen its position in the field of medical tourism. In the world ranking of the countries with the greatest weight in this industry, Turkey took 7th place. Last year, 1.4 million medical tourists visited Turkey, which allowed the country to generate revenue of $2.3 billion. The largest number of foreign patients came from Germany, Great Britain, Russia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan.
For the convenience of foreign patients in Turkey, the portal "Heal in Turkey" has been created (https://healinturkiye.gov.tr/ru ), in which foreigners can receive comprehensive information in three languages about various medical institutions and the services they provide. At the moment, 40 internationally accredited medical institutions have already been registered in the country.
