New data reveals why patients from the US and UK are flocking to India for organ transplants

In 2023, India conducted 1,851 organ transplants for foreign nationals, accounting for nearly 10% of all transplants. The majority of these transplants took place in Delhi, Rajasthan, and West Bengal. Foreign patients primarily seek living donor transplants due to lower costs and strict vetting protocols. Deceased donations are rare and usually reserved for Indian recipients. India set records with over 1,000 deceased donors and 18,378 transplants, highlighting its growing role as a hub for organ transplants.
