In the upcoming period, we will transform our country into a health base not only
for our own people but also for the countries in the region. In order to increase
the health quality and set the costs and effective health services balance, we will
extend the city hospitals, the construction of which we have started, to the four
winds of the country.
Turkey will be number one in the field of Health Tourism all around
the world.
Turkey is ready to get the share it deserves in world health tourism market thanks
to the improvements and regulations of reformative character it has realized in
the field of health in the last ten years.
Turkey, in respect of its geographical location in the midst of the Middle East,
Europe, the Balkans and Africa, is in a position to become a leading country in
health tourism thanks to the well trained doctors and health staff it has, its accessibility, its visa-free travel opportunity for 62 countries and its high health technology. We are far more ahead particularly in terms of countries with which we have
historical and cultural ties.
While providing quality health service for our citizens in hospitals belonging to the
public and private sectors, all kinds of preparations have been made to enable
citizens of regional countries to take advantage of the same service. While foreign guests who come to Turkey for treatment are being treated without facing
any problems, they can in the meantime find the opportunity to take a beautiful
vacation.
Turkey, which ranks first in Europe also for its healing thermal waters, stays the
course of becoming the first target country in the provision of thermal tourism
services. With its hospitable culture, Turkey will distribute cure to more people.
Besides traditional patient care, care of the elderly, physically or mentally disabled patients is also significant. Regarding the elderly and patient care, I think,
social accumulation is also important. Our society is very hospitable and we have
a deep-rooted culture about serving people. These features provide convenience our country in the fields of health care, elderly and disabled patient care.
A great number of patients arrive our country from Europe, USA, Middle East and
neighbor countries. I believe that, in the near future, Turkey will be number one all
over the world because of the fact that Turkey provides both quality and confident service offer and the prices are low.
Hoping that with this Guide you will find the chance to get closely acquainted
with Turkey and the healthcare services standard offered here, I wish you healthy
days ahead.

General Overview
of Turkey
1. HISTORY
1.1. State Rule in Turkish States during the Islamic Period
Turkic tribes such as the Qarluks, Yagmas and Chigils
which took sides with the Arabs during the Battle of Talas
between the Chinese and the Abbasids in year 751, converted to Islam and from that time until the 10th century
Turks have substantially become muslims.
Conversion to Islam has not only affected the social and
cultural life but also state rule. Expeditions named as the
Turkish world rule ideal and embarked on with reference
to the idea that Turks were, by taking the authority to state
rule (kut) from God, heaven sent to bring order and
peace to the world, were embarked upon for spreading
Islam with the embracement of Islam and the notion of jihad.
Karakhanids were the first turco-islamic state. Ghaznavid and Seljuqi sovereigns
have used the title of Sultan.
1.2. The importance of the Seljuqi State from the Viewpoint of Turkish History
After the gates of Anatolia were opened by the Great Seljuqs, the idea that Turks were
the new patrons of Anatolia was imposed upon the Byzantine Empire by the Anatolian
Seljuks. Without sufficient progress being made, the Crusades had begun. These raids
corroded the state but the Seljuqis still knew how to survive. Welfare and happiness
continued in Anatolia until the Mongolian Incursion. With the architectural artifacts
built, the Turkish mark was left on Anatolia. This is why Anatolia has been named Turkey since the 12th century.
2012
With the Mongolian Incursion Turkmen migration into Anatolia increased. These clans
were placed along border tribes so they would protect the borders. As the borders
were called Marks (boy), these clan beys were called Margraves (boybeyi). With the
Seljuqi States loss of sovereignty, the margraves started to act independently. Hence
the Era of Anatolian Beylics had begun.
14
after the conquest of Bilecik, Yarhisar and Inegol the Ottoman State
was established and 1299 is recognized as the year of establishment in historical research. In the time of Orhan Bey, who took control after Osman Bey, the conquests gained pace, Bursa and Iznik
were conquered. Orhan Bey declared independence by coining
his money and the Ottoman Beylic became the Ottoman State.
During the Foundation Period, the Ottoman advancement spread
through the Balkans.
Edirne was conquered, Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia were seized
in the Balkans. At the same time the beylics established in Anatolia
after the Seljuqs, fell under the rule of the Ottoman State. During the
Foundation Period, Osman Bey, Orhan Bey, Murad I, Yldrm Beyazid, Mehmed I and Murat II have subsequently ascended to the Ottoman State power. The
Foundation Period ends with the conquest of Istanbul.
The Period of Rise (1453-1579): After substantial territory was conquered in the East and the
West and the borders of the State expanded, it is acknowledged that the Ottoman State,
which became an Empire with Fatih Sultan Mehmeds conquest of Istanbul has thereby
entered the Period of Rise. Fatih Sultan Mehmet, who ascended the throne after Murad II,
conquered stanbul in 1453 and Istanbul was declared the new capital of the empire.
During the Period of Rise, Fatih Sultan Mehmet, Beyazid II, Yavuz Sultan Selim, Suleyman the
Magnificent and Selim II subsequently rose to the throne. Especially during the era of Suleyman the Magnificent (1520-1566) the empire lived through its brightest era.
The Stagnation Period (1579-1699): The Stagnation Period of the Ottoman Empire started
with the decease of Sokullu Mehmet Pasha. Sokullu Mehmet Pasha served as grand vizier
during the rule of Suleyman Magnificent, Selim II and Murad III. Sokullu Mehmet Pasha is an
important statesman who worked for the political and military success of the state during the
14 years of his viziership and his decease is acknowledged as the transition into the stagnation period of the Ottoman Empire.
With the ascention of inexperienced heirs to the throne and the weakening of the central
authority, inner insurrecions have occurred, the restlessness has widely increased with the
janissary rebellion against authority.
The deterioration of the manorial system and the economic problems brought about by the
Expeditions to Iran and Austria have also played an important role in stagnation.
During the stagnation period Murad III, Mehmed III, Ahmed I, Mustafa I, Othman II, Murad IV,
Ibrahim I, Mehmet IV, Sleyman II, Ahmet II and Mustafa II subsequently ascended to the throne.
The Period of Decline (1699-1792): The period between the Treaty of Karlowitz signed in 1699
and the Treaty of Jassy signed in 1792 is recognized as the period of decline. The Treaty of
Karlowitz is the first treaty by which the Ottoman Empire lost a great amount of territory in
the west. After this date, the main politics of the state was based on regaining its lost territory. During the Period of Decline, Mustafa II, Ahmed III, Mahmud I, Othman III, Mustafa III,
Abdlhamit I and Selim III subsequently ascended the throne.
Period of Dissolution (1792-1922): The period in which the Ottoman Empire underwent the
period of collapse and disolution is named as the Period of Dissolution. This period starts with
the Crimean War which the Ottoman Empire declared against Russia in 1787 to take Crimea
back, the incidents with occurred to the disadvantage of the Ottoman Empire with the participation of Austria in the war and the subsequent signing of the Jassy Treaty in 1792.
During the Period of Dissolution, Selim III, Mustafa IV, Mahmud II, Abdulmecit I, Abdulaziz I, Murad
V, Abdulhamit II, Sultan Mehmet Reshad and Sultan Mehmet Vahdettin subsequently ascended
to the throne. With the abolition of the sultanate in 1922 the Ottoman Era came to an end.
2012
In accordance with the principle of Statism, most investments have been made by the state during the
first years of the Republic. The multiparty era started in the 1950s, with the ascension of
the Democratic Party to power. In this period, a great part of investments were made
in roads and factories and private enterprises started to increase. In the years between 1950 and 2000 Turkey signed and acceeded many international conventions.
16
A series of radical reforms, which aimed at the transformation of muslim village people
into a modern bourgeois society and a single nation and their attainment of the right
to self determination have been mentioned and recognized as the Atatrk reforms
and are still being continued with. With these revolutions, Turkey has become one of
the most developed and modern countries in countries with a muslim majority. The
Republic of Turkey is a democratic and secular rule of law state. The United Nations,
NATO, the European Parliament and the Organization of the Islamic Conference are
some of the international organizations Turkey is a member of. Since 3 October 2005
negotiations on full membership to the European Union started.
As a result of its liberal economic expansions after 1980, Turkey has accelerated its
technological and industrial attacks.
After 2000
Recep Tayyip Erdoan was punished by four months imprisonment on grounds that he
committed the crime of Public incitement and overt instigation to religious and racial
hatred and hostility as proscribed by the Turkish Penal Code, during the speech he
held in Siirt on 12 December 1997.
When his Justice and Development Party, which he founded on 14 August 2001 won
the general elections on 3 November 2002, Abdullah Gl formed the 58th Government of the Republic instead of Erdoan, who was banned from elections. Thereafter
Erdoans punishment was precluded and he headed the government.
2012
Turkey is the 16th greatest economy in the world and the 6th greatest economy in
Europe. It is a member of the G20 as one of the 10 fastest growing markets. In the
years between 2004-2008 the average growth of GDP was % 6.06. According to the
OECD data, Turkey will become the country with the third highest growth rate after

Turkey is the seventh most popular tourist attraction. The 2010 European Culture Capital
Istanbul however is the seventh most visited city
in the country. The direct investment input in Turkey reached 10 million Euros in 2008. The direct
investments which Turkey made in more than 50
countries however amounts to 1,7 billion Euros.
Turkey, which is located at the easternmost of
the West and the westernmost of the East, has a unique strategic position in its region thanks to geographic, cultural and historical elements. Turkey is in the position
of an effective actor and a reliable mediator in critical regions such as the Middle
East, Central Asia, the Black Sea basin, the Mediterranean and the Balkans.
Being a Mediterranean, Black Sea, European and Middle Eastern Country, Turkey is surounded on three sides by water, its birdsview geographic layout is roughly akin to a rectangular.
Turkey is a republic with a democratic regime.
2.1.Geography and Nature
Turkeys territories are at the intersection of 36-42 northern parallels of latitude and 26-45
eastern meridians. It is roughly akin to a rectangular and its width is 1.660 kilometres. It takes
the space of 814.578 km, including lakes. The length of Turkeys land borders is 2.573 km, its
length of strands is 8.333 kilometres, including islands. Turkeys neighbors are Bulgaria and
Greece to its west, Georgia, Armenia and Iran to its east and Iraq and Syria to its south. Turkey
is one of the richest regions in the world in terms of history.
More that half of the country is comprised of heights with an altitude exceeding thousand
metres. Approximately one third of it is covered with lowlands, uplands and mountains of
average altitude, while 10 percent of it is mantled with depressed areas. The highest and
most mountainous areas are in the east. The northern part is roughened by the Northern
Anatolian Mountains, while the southern, eastern and southeastern parts are roughened by
the Taurus Mountains.
The highest point of the country is the tip of Mount Ararat, which reaches 5.166 metres. The
foremost flatlands are ukurova Lowland, Konya Lowland and Harran Lowland. The longest
white water, the source and mouth of which falls within the countrys boundaries, is the 1.355
kilometres long Kzlrmak River. The largest natural lake is the Van Lake which covers an area
of 3.713 km. The Atatrk Dam Lake however, which spreads an area of 817 km is the largest
artificial lake in the country.
The surface area of Turkeys largest island Gkeada is 279 square kilometres.
2.2. Climate
Turkeys surrounding by water on three sides, the stike of mountains, and the variety of land
forms made way for the formation of climate types with different traits. More milder climates
prevail in coastal areas by force of sea effect. The Northern Anatolian Mountains and the
Taurus Mountains, hinder the sea effects penetration into the inner lands. Therefore continental climate prevails in the inner lands. Although Turkey is on the same parallel latitude with
Spain for instance, relatively less water shortage is suffered from as there are heavy rains and
snow on the Anatolian Plateau with a more than 1000 metres altitude.
ukurova Lowland, where agriculture has been engaged in for 8000 thousand years, alongside the Aegean Region, Bafra and aramba Lowlands are considered to be some of the
most exuberant territories in the world. With the exception of tropical vegetables, %90 of the
vegetable and fruit varieties present in the world are being grown in Turkey.
2.3. Population
According to the address-based population registration system, the total population throughout Turkey
reached 74 million 724 thousand 269 in 2011. The city
with the highest population again was Istanbul, followed by Ankara and Izmir.

2.4. Religion
20
Since Turkey is a secular country, the religious and state affairs are separated. Nearly
% 98 percent of the population of Turkey is muslim. The formation of political parties
with religious or ethnic names is proscribed by the Constitution. In general, conservative parties are those which speak for the religious sensitivities. During the first years of
the Republic, the conclusion that religious affairs could not be carried out outside the
boundries of the state was reached at and the decision that it should be controlled by
the state was taken. To this respect, the Directorate of Religious Affairs was established
on 3 March 1924 as an instution subordinate to the Prime Ministry. This institution is in
charge of providing religious service to indiviuals and the administration of Muslims
places of worship such as mosques. The freedom of belief or non-belief, the right to
perform or non-perform religious norms are protected by the Constitution.
2.5. Regime
Turkeys regime is a republic. The Republic of Turkey was established in 1923 under
the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatrk. The official language of Turkey is Turkish. Today, official Turkish is being spoken by a hundred million people. A secular democratic
administrative mentality is present. The judiciary is carried out by the Turkish Grand
National Assembly, the executive is carried out by the government, while the judiciary
is carried out by independent courts. Its capital city is ANKARA.
3. ECONOMIC STRUCTURE
Despite the uncertainties in the world markets and the public deficit crises particularly in
Europe, the year 2011 was a year in which Turkish economy reached a high growth pace.
The Turkish economy, which during the first two quarters of the year reached high numbers
in growth with % 11,6 an %8.8, continued its stability in growth during the third quarter and
concluded the third quarter with a % 8,2 growth rate.
Despite the uncertainties in the European economies, Turkey has ascended to a leading
position in its region. Countries like Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal in the Euro zone have
come to the brink of bankruptcy.
Turkey which owed 23,5 billion USD to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) decreased its
debt to less than 5 billion in year 2011.
In parallel with the pace gained in the growth numbers, the unemployment rate in Turkey
according to the most recently disclosed numbers, decreased by 2,5 points compared to
the same period the year before and receded to % 8,8.
The year 2011 was Turkeys golden age in exports. The rising trend continued despite the
uncertainties in the European contries economies, which are Turkeys most important export markets. According to the numbers provided by the unions of exporters, export worth
122,1 billion USD was made during the 11 months of the said year. The exports within the last
twelve months however broke the record of the Republics history and reached 133,9 billion
USD. The primary export items are vehicles and supply industry, ready to wear and garment
industry, coal and steel products, chemical materials, electrical and electronik goods. As a
result of the reforms which started in 2002 in Turkey, an important rise in the capital inflow was
observed.
By providing for the hot money flow into the country, the foreign currency reserve in the Central Bank were approximately 85 billion USD according to the most recently announced figures. Despite the many economic crises it suffered throughout its history, the Turkish economy
has overcome the global crises suffered in the last year with success. It has preserved its title
of being the worlds 16th greatest economy. With its stable economic policies and successful
government, its target of becoming one of the 10 greatest economies in the world in 2023
persists without being led astray.
4. TOURISM IN TURKEY
Tourism in Turkey develops in parallel to the positive course in the economy. With the
rise in the number of tourists who visit Turkey, the contribution of tourism income to the
economy has increased. In the year 2010, tourism income was at 20 billion 806 million
708 thousand 444 USD.
As Turkey is positioned within the temperate zone, interest in sea touism is particularly
high. The Aegean, Mediterranean and Southern Marmara are important for sea tourism.
Because the average altitude of Turkey is high, it also has an attraction for winter tourism. Skiing resorts for winter tourism are available especilly in the mountains of Uluda
in Bursa, Erciyes in Kayseri, Palandken in Erzurum and Kartalkaya in Bolu. Turkey is a
country which also draws attention with its historical features.
Since prehistoric times, Anatolia has been host to many civilizations such as the Hitites,
Assyrians, Sumerians, Babylonians and Persians. Artefacts which have survived these
periods make a great contribution to the development of tourism. Aditionally, Turkey,
with its new and quality facilities, large spectrum of shopping facilities and its great
number of expertised travel agencies and airlines has become an important tourist
attraction.
With all these specialities, Turkey gained its share of world tourism market by %2.7 and
the European tourism market by % 5.1 and has thereby ranked 8th worldwide by tourist inflow and 9th by tourist income. Turkey has hosted an average of 33 million tourists
in 2011. Turkey has ranked among the Worlds Best Ten Countries for Foreign Visitors.

variety in its climate brought about by its
geographical distinction and its standing
as a bridge between three continents renders the Anatolian Peninsula the holder of
a plant diversity rare in the world. While the
total number of plants in Europe is 12.000 ,
this number is 9.000 in our country.
Our country is superior to Europe with respect to its plant diversity. For as much as
our country is superior to Europe with respect
to endemic plants, which only grow in a certain region or the homeland of which is a
specific region, it is also one of the few regions in that respect. While the total number

Article 60 of the Constitution states that Everyone is entitled to social security and the
State takes the necessary precautions to provide such security and institutes the essential
organizations. Moreover, according to Article 56 of the Constitution, it is decreed that
The State single handedly plans and regulates the provision of service by healthcare
organizations with the purpose of enabling
everyone to continue ones life in physical
and spiritual health and the realization of cooperation by increasing the savings and efficiency in man power and material power.
The State performs this duty by availing itself
of the healthcare organizations and social institutions in the public and private sector and
supervising them. The same Article provides
that General Health Insurance can be established.
The main components of the Health Reform works during the 1990s were as follows:
1. The establishment of General Health Insurance by gathering the social security institutions under one roof,
2. The development of primary healthcare services within the frame of family practice,
3. The transformation of hospitals into autonomous healthcare undertaking,
4. The transformation of the Health Ministry into a structure by which healthcare services with priority in preventive healthcare services are planned and supervised.
As is seen, this period has been one during which important theoretical works have been
undertaken but sufficient field could not be found for their implementation.
signed in a way as to provide the necessary healthcare to everyone in high quality. This
service must be effective, at bearable costs and in a socially acceptable fashion. It is suggested that bearing these factors in mind, each country develops its own unique healthcare
system.
112 Emergency Healthcare services have started to be provided not only in cities, but also
in villages, the number of station houses has been increased, our ambulances have been
equipped with the latest technologies. Means of conveyance by air and sea have been
added to the sysytem.
Preventive healthcare, maternal and infant health being in the first place, primary healthcare services have been strenghtened, the application of family practice, which is one of
the key elments of the contemporary understanding of healthcare, has been launched and
spread across the country. In eight years, our country has suceeded in gaining ground in
infant mortality rates which developed countries have gained in thirty years. It has yielded
the same success in maternal mortality rates and in eight years it made the progress OECD
countries have made in maternal mortality in 23 years.
Thereby, the quality of healthcare services has increased, peoples access to healthcare
services became easier and while the citizens satisfaction by healthcare services was %39
in 2003, it exceeded %80 in 2011.

As of 10 January 2012, the number of patients conveyed with the ambulance helicopters 20.980 hours of flights was 10565, while the number of patients conveyed with
ambulance aircrafts 5789 hours of flights was 2059. A service procurement tender for
a four strecher turbo-jet aircraft ambulance has been lodged. From 2012 onwards, five
aircraft ambulances will be put into service.
Sea Ambulances are the Rescue Teams of the Seas
In emergency cases, foremost being the drowning cases,
in which conveyance to hospital after sea accidents is
necessary, four sea boat ambulances to work in cooperation with the Coast Guard Command have been
put into service. The sea boat ambulances, which have
initially commenced service in the Marmara Region, are
planned to be spread across all coastal regions by 2014.
Motor Ambulances Turkeys Fastest Ambulance is the Moto Ambulance
Part of the emergency cases take
place in the narrow streets of the city
and at places where inner city traffic
is heavy. While difficulties are being
faced with reaching the patients in
these regions with land ambulances,
sometimes it becomes impossible.
With the 52 motorcycled ambulances put into service, emergency aid
services have come to be provided
more efficiently.
2012

Staff with knowledge of four dinstict foreign languages (English, German, Arabic and
Russian) are employed at the 112 Emergency Call Centers for tourist, the location of
patients unable to speak are identified via satellite, the location of emergency caller
is immediately identified, even if he cannot state his address.
The communications infrastructure is supported by satellite phones installed in all cities.
Tracking Emergency Cases over Electronic Maps
All ambulances are tracked over digital maps. The unmoving ambulance, which appears in red color, turns into blue when it starts to move. Thereby, the digital command
center tracks which ambulance moves with which speed, to which address it is driven,
which road it takes and whether it carries a patient or not.
Within the frame of the Health Convergence Programme, we have renewed the public hospitals technologically and increased their capacity. We have started the procurement of
services in state hospitals in public private partnership. The number of magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) devices, which was 18 in all state hospitals in 2002, rose to 247 in 2010. The
number of computerized tomography (CT) devices, which was 121 in 2002 rose to 375 in
2010, while the number of ultrasosgraphy (USG) devices rose from 495 to 1352 in the same
period. A similar rise was also manifested in the private sector and university hospitals.

We increased the number of intensive care inpatient beds, which was 869 in year 2002
tenfold and raised it to 8.239 by the end of 2010. We have increased the number of
intensive care patients eightfold across the country.
We have realized very significant improvement in the quality of service provided by
scaling the services in intensive care.

The information of the patients who wish to undergo transplant at centers where kidney
transplant is made countrywide, is registered with our Ministrys National Organ Transplant
Waiting List Programme. Previously, the Organ Transplant National Coordination Center
(NCC) was taking these registries into account and merely the procedures concerning the
patients awaiting kidney transplant and the procedures concerning the donors organ distribution were undertaken.
We have set up a new National Organ Transplant Information System, which includes all
information concerning organ transplants (kidney, liver, heart, pancreas and small intestines)
to be made from a living or dead person across the country and the information concerning
patients awaiting organ transplant. This system is followed primarily by organ transplant centers, regional coordination centers (RCC) and national coordination centers (NCC).
Organ transplant is the most useful in replacement therapy and the only type of treatment
available for some organs. In some chronic liver and cardiovascular diseases however the
situation is worrying, since there are no auxiliary therapies such as dialysis, the patients may
lose their lives if they cant find an organ to replace theirs.
The nine Regional Coordination Centers in the cities of Istanbul, Izmir, Ankara, Adana, Antalya, Samsun, Diyarbakr, Erzurum and Bursa work in cooperation with the National Organ and
Tissue Transplant Coordination Center, which they are subordinated to in cases of donated
cadaver organs distribution. We also use our Ministrys aircraft ambulances in the transport
of cadaver derived organs to the patient whom the organ will be transplanted.
We have launched registered Kidney Transplant Centers in 59 hospitals, Liver Transplant Centers in 34 hospitals, Heart and Lung Transplant Centers in 16 hospitals.
In the year 2011, the first arm and face transplant operations realized at the Akdeniz Hospital have
been the solid proof of the progress made by Turkey in the field of medicine. This success made an
overwhelming impression not only in our country but also made tremendous impact worldwide.
2012
Regarding stem cells, we have become one of the outstanding countries in the field
by allowing mesenchymal practice in Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) cases in line
with scientific criteria. Ten patients have undergone experimental stem cell transplant
treatment of spinal cord injuries during a study which we have permitted in Ankara
University. In line with the studies we have undertaken with the purpose of decreasing
the number of patients awaiting cornea transplant and increasing the number of donated cornea derived from cadavers, we have increased the number of eye banks to
16. We have increased the number of cadaver derived cornea tissue by putting the
plan of linking a tissue source center to the eye bank into effect.

with Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) typing at home and the cord blood donated to the
National Non-Relative Cord Blood Bank.
Ensuring in the shortest time possible the coordination of hematopoietic stem cell procurement from overseas banks for patients awaiting transplant but for whom no volunteer can
be found at home.
Acquiring a total of 50.000 cord blood donation by 2013,
Making 2.500 or more transplants a year,
Establishing Regional Coordination Centers in 29 health regions initially in order to reach
the targeted number of volunteer donators,
Establishing Volunteer Donator Centers in required numbers as assessed by the Regional
Coordinators in every region,
Establishing National Non Relative Cord Blood Bank and cord blood specimen collection
centers (Cord blood donation by hospitals of our Ministry, university and private maternity
hospitals)
Decreasing the number of patients awaiting treatment and the patient mortality rate by
increasing the transplant awaiting patients chance of undergoing the highest quality
treatment in the shortest time with the coordination of domestic and overseas centers.
Initiation of the accreditation process of hematopoietic stem cell transplant centers with
international institutions such as the European Bone Marrow Donor Information System
(EM-DIS), Bone Marrow Donors Worldwide (BMDW), The World Marrow Donor Association
(WMDA), European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), ensuring integration and coordination with them.
Covering the organization costs by 2013 and becoming cabaple of covering the management costs without drawing on supplemental appropriation,
Sponsoring domestic and overseas scientific projects with its revenue and providing technical assistance.
6.2. Replantation Surgery
A betimes replant of a limb lost due to an accident or similar reasons is a race against time
and it can last for hours. The problem with replantation arises when there is lack of coordination between healthcare organizations when directing the medical case to the right center
and troubles are endured during organization.
In the past, patients who would apply to hospitals with complicated hand injuries or amputations, would have to wander between hospitals because of not being informed and being
referred without being brought into stable condition, while those patients who were referred
to hospitals by 112 ambulances were suffering time loss due to the difficulties endured in
finding the appropriate center. Nowadays, approximately 750 replantation surgeries are performed anually. The number of microsurgery practice, including complicated hand injuries,
is around 1500. The number of specialist doctors working actively in this field is around 75. We
plan to raise this number to 300 when the works undertaken for the provision of subspecialty
expertise in the field of hand surgery are completed. As a result of the studies we have undertaken, we have made a list of centers belonging to the public and private sector. Presently,
weve built the capacity to treat cases of complicated hand injuries and amputation cases
at the hospitals belonging to the Ministry of Health, universities and the private sector in 22
city centers.

7.6. The Organization of Common Health Weeks
2012
With respect to the coopertion agreements and protocols we have signed, we hold
Health Weeks events with corresponding countries. The mutual countries scientists,
experts and professionals, who get the chance to come together within the framwork
of these events, mutually exchange views and try finding ways of further developing
the present cooperation potential. In this respect, we have so far organized Common
Health Weeks with Afghanistan, Sudan, Yemen, Nakhcevan, Iraq and the Gagauzia
Region. Within the framework of these events, our countrys scientists, healthcare experts and healthcare professionals have organized common conferences and workshops in the relevant countries. Again within the framework of these Health Weeks,
our doctors have performed joint operations and health inspections wih their foreign
colleagues.

As Augurzky as Scheuer note relevant to the case in Germany, one shouldnt be surprised of other countries service firms entering the healthcare market if Turkish service
firms dont swiftly become attractive for hospitals.
8.3. Healthcare Services in Turkey: From Backwardness to Leadership
Nearly ten years ago, the healthcare system was regarded as backward not only by other
members of the Organization for Cooperation and Development (OECD) but also by other
upper middle income countries. There was a discrepancy between the constitutional rights
and realities with regards to the Turkish citizens equal access to healthcare services.
Health was important, but still was rarely taken up in the political agenda.
At present, the healthcare system in Turkey has ben transformed, change and transformation took place not only in view of the positive evaluations by the rest of the OECD
and the European Union, but also in the healthcare outputs, accountability and filling
the voids in fair financing.
We will explain the Health Convergence Programme launched in 2003, analyze the
reasons behind its success and share the lessons learnt.
In just seven years, the Health Convergence Programme in Turkey has provided the
health cover for essential services and has significantly improved the health outputs.
The important difficulty now is how a more complicated health system can be directed correctly and how it will be adapted to the needs and preferences changing
in line with more demanding citizens and a more democratic and pluralist state structure, while at the same time improving efficiency and financial sustainability.
8.4. Letter by WHO Director General esteemed Dr. Chan
In her letter dated 4 May 2011 to our esteemed Minister, Director General of the World
Health Organization esteemed Margaret Chans has in brief said the following:
Esteemed Minister,
2012
I have had the chance to visit your country on different occasions. During these visits, I
have been very impressed by the extraordinary progress made by Turkey in the last 8-10
years. This is evidence of the strong commitments made by the Government in public
health. The Health Convergence Programme launched in 2003 with regards to the
basic public health problems is making very impressive improvements especially in fields
such as maternal and infant mortality death rates, smoking rates and scopes for vaccinations.
60
Appreciating the perfect relations which WHO currently has with Turkey and your personal
efforts in matters of global health, I hope for the continuity of our ongoing cooperation.
8.5. The 2023 Vision in Health
1. Regardless of their financial situation, we will continue to perceive our people as first
class citizens indiscriminately. We will follow up on the health status of our citizens
step by step in their pregnancy, natal, childhood, adolecence, youth and old age
periods, i.e. throughout their lives.
2. While maternal mortality ratio related to pregnancy was 61 per hundred thousand
in 2003, we decreased this ratio with an unprecedented pace. In eight years we
reached the point which OECD countries had reached in 23 years. We will decrease
the maternal mortality ratio related to pregrancy, which presently is 16,4 per one
hundred thousand, to less than 10 per one hundred thousand in 2015, less than eight
per one hundred thousand in 2019 and less than six per hundred thousand in 2023.
3. The infant mortality ratio below the age on 1 was 29 per thousand in 2003. We have
also decreased this ratio with an unprecedented pace. In eight years we reached the
point which the OECD countries had reached in 30 years. We will decrease the infant
mortality ratio, which at present is 10 per thousand, to less than seven per thousand in
2015, less than six per thousand in 2019 and less than five per thousand in 2023.
4. By 2015, we will add another 800 fully equipped 112 ambulances to our 112 fleet of 2500
vehicles, which by its current state has reached the capacity of responding to emergency healthcare services. Aditionally, we will remove the ambulances which are older
than three years from the system and own a young fleet of 2750 ambulances.
5. We will make sure that people in special need due to their economic, social or economic
conditions, foremost being disabled people, can more easily access healthcare services
they need. We aim at providing at home treatment in a family environment for these patients in need of special care, if the medical care and rehabilitation of whom are possible
outside the hospital and shortening the period of stay at the hospitals. We have reached
ten thousand patients with the at home healthcare service, which we launched in 2010.
We plan to reach 70 thousand people in 2011. Our aim is to extend this service to all those
in need of at home health care (150 thousand people) by 2015.
6. We will provide our elderly the opportunity to live a very quality healthy life. Our elderly will
be more active and healthy. We will exceed the world standards in services provided in
care of the elderly. In cases necessary, we will be providing at home services for our elderly.
7. With the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, we are building city hospitals which comprise health facilities, Research and Development Units, high technology centers, fields of
social life, Health Science Universities and grand recreation fields all toghether.
8. We will be the center of health tourism of the European, Middle Eastern, African, Central
Asian and Russian region.
9. In order to cover the healthcare workforce deficiency, we have increased the student
quotas for faculties of medicine from 4.500 to 7.500. We will continue our cooperation
with the Council for Higher Education in order to raise this quota to 10 thousand students,
while raising the quota for nursing students to 20 thousand. More doctors will be provided
employment opportunity when the number of doctors increase. We will raise the number
of doctors, which at present is 120 thousand, to 130 thousand by 2015, 155 thousand by
2019, 200 thousand by 2023, i.e. we will nearly double the number of doctors. We will raise
the number of midwife nurses, which at present is 163 thousand by 2015, to 238 thousand
by 2015, 310 thousand by 2019 and multiply the current number by 2,5, i.e. raise it to 400
thousand in 2023. We will raise the number of healthcare personnel, which at present is
650 thousand by total, to 715 thousand by 2015, 853 thousand by 2019, nearly double the
number by 2023 and raise it to 1 million 100 thousand. Thereby, we will render sustainable the healthcare services which our citizens deserve.
10. Our citizens will continue to use the the most newly developed medical technologies at
the cheapest prices. We will spread the incentive and procurement practices which will
attract high end healthcare technology to Turkey.
11. Our citizens will be able to get all kinds of services related to health. With the development of the highest quality, most contemporary, fastest and most widespread services,
the per capita health expenditure will be one thousand USD in 2015, 1500 USD in 2019, will
multiply by three in 2023 and reach 2000 USD. However this increase will not place a burden on our citizens shoulders. This is because the the efficiency in the public sphere will
increasingly continue due to the healthcare reforms implemented in the last eight years.
This means that we will provide higher quality services with less expenditures compared
to the countries providing similar quality services.
12. Turkey will further develop health convergence, a worldwide unique model and become
one of the leaders in setting the world health agenda. We will develop and strengthen
our cooperation with the world in health matters.
13. As a result, we have our sight set on Turkeys leading a global change aimed at serving
mankind and not its conformity with global change in the field of healthcare.

Health
Tourism In
Turkey
1. GENERAL OVERVIEW
Being a rising trend in the world and the country health tourism is an important type
of alternative tourism.
Health tourism: It is the travel from the country of residence to another country for
treatment purpose. The person who travels for treatment purpose is called a health
tourist.
Health tourism shouldnt be evaluated as a mere type of tourism implying the travel
for treatment in hospitals. Although all types of tourisms which provide healthy living
should be accepted as health tourism, it can be assessed under three main headings:
1. Medical Tourism(Treatment,surgery and similar procedures at hospitals)

Turkey has achieved great success in the deep rooted reforms in its healthcare service.
The citizens access to healthcare has been facilitated. All citizens have been gathered
under the scope of insurance with the General Healthcare Insurance. The internet and
phone appointment systems have been put into service and the waiting times have
been reduced to a minimum. All hospitals have been renewed technologically and
their medical equipment capacities have been increased. The right to choose, which is
the most basic right of the patient has come to be practiced in all hospitals. Substantial
changes have also been made in Emergency Healthcare Services and services have
come be provided to citizens for free. The speed of ambulances in reaching the medi-

1.1. Private Hospitals
The process of change in Turkeys healthcare system has left its mark private hospitals alongside public hospitals. Private hospitaling
has gained its share in a short period of time in the provision of treatments. Investments fo
future however show signs of increasing its share in the upcoming years. The Ministry of Health
attaches importance to the greatness of this share and has tried to pave the way for private
hospitals by drafting regulations for them. Part of these private hospitals have reached the
magnitude of chain hospitals. Although private hopitals spread across the country large
and small, they concentrate in greater cities, foremost being Istanbul. By providing the most
recent technological developments to Turkey, private hospitals have ensured the patients
access to these facilities. They have become an integral part of health tourism by provising
service not only to our own citizens but also to patients coming from all world countries.
Private hospitals in Turkey are in European standards both physically and technologically.
Most private hospitals, by proving that they provide services at healthcare quality standards,
have been accredited by the JCI in patient care quality and organization management.
Turkey ranks second worldwide with its 42 healthcare organizations which have been JCI
accredited.

1.GENERAL OVERVIEW
2012
Our guests who come to our country within the scope of tourism for the advanced
age, take advantage of rehabilitation services in nursing homes alongside sightseeing
tours and occupational therapies. Special care for the disabled are provided in clinical hotels and rehabilitation centers.
130
2012
Geriatric Care Center: Geriatric Care Centers are healthcare organizations established for the diagnois and treatment of illnesses which come with age, their rehabilitation and the relevant nursing services.
132
These centers provide service within the structure of hospitals or are subordinated to
hospitals. One day ambulatory treatment and rehabilitation services are formed for
people accomodating in these centers. Moreover the disabled populations, the ratio
of whom reaches % 10 in many European countries, also have the right to travel and
have fun just like other people. However, this part of society generally cannot join
tourism due to lack of infrastructure. This brings many social and mental problems with
itself. Tourism for the disabled will become one of the most talked about subjects in the
years to come; our country has also initiated works on this matter.
2012
Our Highlands
1.Highland Tourism
The highland life as part of a rich living culture has an important place in Turkey, which
has a geography and climate peculiar to itself. This tradition which is expressed in
ancient scripts and folk songs which are still in the limelight, (such as in the folk song
Avar cities have fleen away), have enabled the opening up of hundreds of sites in
Turkish geography as new and different living spheres.
Turks, who were described in Chinese chronicles as a nation which lives by following
waters and grassland with their horses and high wheeled carriages have, after settling in the Anatolian geography, started to live their traditional life styles by their new
standards.
In the new millenium, in which the whole world becomes increasingly similar to one another, the highlands of Turkey are highlands, which come from the past and the taste
of which is noticed after being experienced, while their overwhelming and different
lifestyles are eastern and exotic in regard of our current modern living and authenic to
the degree we are distanced from nature.
2012
The highlands offer the unpolluted air of the wilderness, crystalline cold waters, its cooling chilliness even in the hottest days of summer; its fascinating scenery, its vegetables
grown on their branches without the use of hormones and food produced by free
range animals. The hundred and one type of animals and plants living and growing in
an undamaged habitat, rescues people from the made up world of the documentary
programmes on television and makes them a part of the real life.

B. SHOPPING IN TURKEY
The Grand Bazaar was the worlds first shopping center, built by Fatih Sultan Mehmed
in the 15th century under the title of Istanbul rejuvenation project. The Grand Bazaar,
where the foundations of the bazaar culture was laid, at the same time formed the
roots of store combinations in a contemporary modern concept.
In the past, the Istanbul Grand Bazaar was a bazaar where specific shops were situated in every street, handicraft works were under strict control, commerce, ethics
and traditions were shown great respect. At present, these ethical principles, although
decreasing, are tried to be continued.
The contemporary Grand Bazaar, which spreads over an area of 300 thousand square
metres with 4 thousand 500 shops and 18 gates opening to 65 streets, provides employment for 35 thousand people.
The Grand Bazaar is busy and crowded at all hours of the day. The great stores, which
extend at the entrance of the bazaar, sell almost all handicrafted and exported products in Turkey. You can find the best pieces of traditional Turkish arts, foremost being
hand-made rugs and jewelry. These are sold with their quality and authenticity certificates and dispatched to everywhere in the world with guarantee.
Besides rugs and jewelry, famous handmade artefacts, copper bronze, souvenirs and
decorative furniture, ceramics, onyx and superior quality Turkey leather keepsakes
form a rich collection. Generally, in the sense of souvenirs, tourist can find these products in all of Turkeys bazaars. In fact, the Istanbul Grand Bazaar is a mosaic in Turkey.
This bazaar, which ornaments Istanbul with its history and the covered bazaars in many
other cities are the center of toruists interests.
