Over 62 hospitals in Thailand are accredited by the Joint Commission International, positioning the country among top destinations for healthcare services globally. Delegates from eight of Thailand's leading private hospitals, including Piyavate Hospital, World Medical Hospital, and Phyathai Hospital, were present.
