Hello {NAME} A little before the onset of Covid-19, as part of a reporting assignment, I stopped by a small, sleepy town in Kerala in southern India. The town had little to offer to vacationers and yet foreign tourists had begun frequenting the place. While the town was hours away from the regionâs famous backwater cruise hubs, a number of specialty hospitals had mushroomed in the area over the years and had ultimately caught the eye of those willing to travel to cut medical expenses. In fact, this medical tourism boom [has now gone regional](. The medical tourism market is growing 15% to 25% every year. South and Southeast Asia see the most inbound patient flows. In fact, a patient from the US could save between [50% to 75%]( on medical expenses if they travel to Thailand for treatment. Singapore-based Doctor Anywhere says it has already begun seeing good progress in the two months itâs been offering medical tourism services. The firmâs report card is an interesting one. Founder Lim Wai Mun told us that Doctor Anywhere has seen a 150% compound annual growth rate over the last three years. Whatâs more, through its well-diversified revenue sources, it expects to earn S$100 million in revenue by the end of 2023 - double what it saw in 2022. [More on this here](. -- [Nikita Puri]( journalist at Tech in Asia  --------------------------------------------------------------- TOP STORIES THIS WEEK 1ï¸. [Doctor Anywhere aims to double revenue to S$100m this year](
