In Medical Tourism & Inequity in India, Kristen Smith explores the role of private hospitals in India in the global healthcare service supply chain. Smith examines the medical tourism industry, the commodification of the Indian healthcare system, and the local populations facing critical health issues.

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.
