Health-related migration

Health-related migration is the migration process revolving primarily around a given health condition or disability, whether aiming for better treatment conditions, or for carrying a lifestyle in a more (disability) friendly environment. Research in this category includes studies on older age migration, healthcare, living conditions, disability and accessibility. Some research refers to the intersections between health issues and class, race, gender and sexuality.

Migration of Indian health professionals to selected European nations : the case of Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden

Authors Ayona BHATTACHARJEE
Description
India’s comparative advantage in health care is due to a large resource pool and competence in English. Indian migration to the US, UK or Australia has been widely studied, but not much attention has been given to the Scandinavian countries. This paper fills the gap by analysing recent trends and prospects for Indian health professionals in Denmark, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden. It combines available data sources, personal communication with different migration boards, interview of two international recruiters and a migrant health professional. Additionally, it looks at Indian R&D tie ups in the sector with these countries, which have implications for the movement of health professionals.
