In order to achieve the goal of the research, in the first stage, with a qualitative approach, factors affecting financial resilience were identified through semi-structured interviews with health tourism supply chain experts. The method of judgmental and snowball sampling and its volume was determined to be 25 people and thematic analysis was used to analyze the data.
