Your task
You are required to choose one of the tourism topics that were covered in weeks 2 to 5, and conduct
extensive research of the most recent scholarly and peer-reviewed literature.

Assessment Description
In this individual assignment, you will be given an opportunity to explore contemporary issues affecting
the Hospitality and Tourism Industry in Australia by conducting an extensive review of the cu
ent and
scholarly literature. This will enable you to pursue self-directed learning and practise useful
communication skills by writing an informed and well-versed report.

Assessment Instructions
Before making a choice, please conduct preliminary research first to determine the availability of
information. If you find that the number of credible sources about your chosen topic is limited, please
consult your workshop facilitator to discuss an alternative. Please note that the date range of the
literature must not exceed five years.

In reviewing found literature about your chosen type of tourism, you are required to:
• Map and draw the potential traveller’s touchpoints within the selected tourism type by creating a
chart or diagram (1 page, no more).
• Identify and analyse the central issues in each of the traveller’s touchpoints (400 words);
• Critically examine and evaluate various solutions that hospitality and tourism businesses adopt
to rectify issues you have identified (600 words).

In writing your analysis, you will need to use at least 8 sources of information that are referenced in
accordance with Kaplan Harvard Referencing Guide. These may include corporate websites,
government publications, industry reports, census data, journal articles, and newspaper articles.

Introduction
The existing and potential ability of the Australian health system to support medical tourism should be carefully considered. Australia has several restrictions on its medical ability that undoubtedly limit medical tourism. It is important to emphasize that the demand for medical tourism is unlikely to grow to have significant impacts on Australia's private hospital sector based on consultation processes and cu
ent size of the industry. Nonetheless, seminars and literature have shown that most visitor healthcare providers invest in the ability to serve both the local and the foreign clients and build up their own facilities. However, foreign patients would probably remain an overwhelming minority across Australia without deliberate involvement in fostering medical tourism, which means there is likely to be minimal impact on the existing private hospital system capacity.

MEDICAL TOURISM TOUCHPOINTS
Central Issues in Each Touchpoint
As compared to the tourism sector as a whole, Australia is cu
ently extremely small. In consultations, only a few known medical tourism promoters and providers were found. Many stakeholders acknowledge it is likely to be a small nickel market in comparison with the general tourism sector, although the medical tourism industry is developing. As supported by Holliday et al. (2015), due to consultations, there are major differences in the clinical travel average for providers and facilitators for medical tourism with indicative figures below.
Medical facilitators said they receive 20 to 50 patients a year on average. One facilitator confirmed that it received only a total of approximately 30 patients from August 2009 to January 2011.
A private provider has reported that approximately 20 to 30 patients are receiving treatment annually.
Real or Perceived Quality Issues
The convincement of (possible) patients that they are comparable to the medical treatment available at home is one of the biggest problems especially for medical tourism destinations in developing countries. As you observe, West medical tourists often perceive health care inadequate or unsafe in developing countries (according to the motto 'You get what you're paying for') (Hong, 2016). There is cu
ently no detailed data that can compares performance measures accurately across countries, even where the quality of a foreign health facility is high and it does its best (for example, through accreditation, staff qualifications and patients' testimony)
