Toward An International Constitution Of Patient Rights, Alison Poklaski
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

While medical tourism can benefit patients through increased access to treatment and cost-savings, medical travel also raises concerns about ensuring quality of care and legal redress in medical malpractice. Moreover, existing regulations fail to address these unprecedented issues.
