The purpose of this study is to reveal the factors that determine the impact of medical tourism on sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study was conducted in descriptive cross-sectional type with 1057 medical tourism stakeholders from five continents between July 2023 and February 2024. Data were collected with an online survey. To determine the determinants, t test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and Multi Logistic Regression analysis were performed. Odds ratios between “Yes” and “No Idea”, efficiency and sustainability (OR=1.101), policy (OR=0.975), ethics (OR=1.035), infrastructure (OR=1.917), and caring (OR=1.045) were found to be significant. Looking at the odds ratios between “No” and “No Idea”, efficiency and sustainability (OR=1.063), policy (OR=1.022), ethics (OR=1.024), infrastructure (OR=1.081), and caring (OR=1.048) were found to be significant.
