In a major step to enhance medical value travel (MVT) between India and the United Kingdom, BAPIO Training Academy (BTA), The Medical Travel Company (TMTC), and Marengo Asia Hospitals have formed a global partnership. The partnership is designed to offer patients a smooth, high-quality healthcare experience in both countries.
Under this partnership, the three groups will collaborate seamlessly to provide personalized, end-to-end care to patients. This comprises immediate consultations with veteran doctors in both nations, treatments at BTA-registered hospitals in India following UK treatment and infection control standards, access to tailored premium after-care facilities in India, and private insurance cover upon return to the UK.
Dr. Sanjay Jaiswal, Member of the Lok Sabha and Chairperson of the Indo-UK Healthcare Alliance, underlined that the alliance supports India's 'Heal in India' programme and will increase the nation's profile in the global medical value travel sector. He also pointed to the possibility of Indian patients receiving medical treatment in the UK and urged UK investors to invest more in Indian healthcare, pointing out that 100% FDI is allowed in the industry.
Prof. Parag Singhal, CEO of BAPIO Training Academy, said, "This international partnership is the first of its type and is totally in line with BTA's goals of enhancing healthcare standards, consolidating the 'living bridge' between India and the UK, and enhancing patient outcomes within both nations."
Ankit Mehrotra, TMTC's Founder, stated, "We have collaborated with leading medical specialists in the UK and the most renowned hospitals and surgeons in India, established our world-class post-surgery recovery center, and introduced the first-of-its-kind post-surgery insurance product for patients after they return to the UK."
Dr. Rajiv Singhal, Group CEO and Managing Director of Marengo Asia Hospitals, further added, "With this partnership, patients from the UK will be able to avail timely high-standard treatment at Marengo Asia Hospitals in India. They will also get the benefit of personalized care and the guidance of super-specialties which are usually time-consuming to seek in their native system."
This partnership represents a significant step forward in international healthcare collaboration, aiming to provide patients with efficient, high-quality medical care across borders. By combining resources and expertise, BTA, TMTC, and Marengo Asia Hospitals are poised to set new standards in medical tourism, benefiting patients in both the UK and India.
