Answer: Thankyou for your acknowledgement and I regret the delay in the reply. If you want to go abroad then doing the MPT course would be beneficial. An MBA course in marketing/finance/HR would seem as just done for the heck of it but an MHA course would enhance your qualifications and experience. More so, an MHA degree is equivalent to the MBA with a refinement in the roles and the responsibilities specifically cater to the needs of the healthcare industry. A KPO is a completely research based game where you need not do any course but the company will train you as per their requirements esp.the SAS(Statistical Analysis Software)where you would have to do research and analysis. You could think of taking that step as well by approaching KPO companies who recruit medicos.

Hope that would help.
