Mastercard and the Bank of Ceylon have partnered to introduce Sri Lanka's inaugural medical tourism card
Mastercard, in collaboration with the Bank of Ceylon (BOC), has taken a significant step in transforming Sri Lanka’s medical tourism landscape by introducing the country's first-ever medical tourism card. This pioneering initiative caters to the growing sector of medical travel, providing foreign patients with a more streamlined, convenient financial experience during their stay. The card enhances accessibility to medical services, allowing visitors to seamlessly manage payments while enjoying Sri Lanka’s well-established healthcare facilities.
The collaboration aims to fortify the nation’s position as a rising destination for medical tourism by addressing both financial flexibility and security. The card offers multi-currency payment options, enhanced fraud protection, and a range of services designed specifically for international medical tourists. This partnership also highlights the broader goal of integrating Sri Lanka into the global medical tourism market, leveraging its high-quality medical services at affordable prices.
By launching this initiative, Mastercard and BOC are empowering healthcare providers in Sri Lanka to better serve international clients, simplifying financial transactions, and thereby contributing to the overall growth of the country's medical tourism sector.
