Abstract: | This study explores the services offered on medical tourism facilitators' websites for prospective travelers. Through the application of correspondence analysis, there were found differences in both website content and in services offered varied by the continent on which the facilitator operated. As there is yet little known of the motivations of medical travelers' specific destination selecions, the found differences may be a first insight into regional differences, possible having a role in such destination selections. |
