In Medical Tourism & Inequity in India, Kristen Smith explores
Indian private hospitals and their role in the global healthcare
service supply chain within various religious, social, cultural,
historical, and economic contexts. Drawing on critical medical
anthropology theories as well as health and human rights
perspectives, Smith problematizes the assumed independence between
the medical tourism industry, the commodification of the Indian
healthcare system, and the local populations facing critical health
issues, while highlighting the rapid transformation of healthcare
services into merely another global commodity.
