The article is devoted to the problems of legal regulation of medical tourism as a type of economic activity. The definition of medical tourism, its structural components and peculiarities of legal regulation are given.
Medical tourism is a type of tourist activity, characterized by the formation and sale of a tourist product. This product includes a package of general tourist services, as well as a package of medical services. There are such structural components of medical tourism: 1) curative tourism, providing medical and diagnostic services that can be provided only by entities that have the status of medical institutions; 2) rehabilitation and wellness tourism, which provides diagnostic, sanatorium-resort, preventive and other types of medical services that can be provided by medical institutions and other entities.
The expediency of creating a single legal regime in the field of medical tourism is argued. This legal regime is necessary for effective protection of patients' rights to life and health.
