Patients from the Americas, Africa, Europe and the Middle
East are increasingly opting for world class medical treatment
in Asia because it is convenient, quick and cost effective.
Due to America's high cost of health insurance and its limited
coverage, long wait lists in the UK and Canada, and non-availability
of quality treatment in Africa, an increasing number of
people worldwide are heading to Asia for treatment. In 2006,
an estimated 500,000 Americans sought offshore medical care. The low cost of our health care does not affect the quality
of our service. Currently, 120 hospitals have JCI accreditation,
affirming their allegiance to American hospital standards.
Healthcare expenses are relative to the local cost of living.
In countries where the dollar commands very high buying
power, physicians, hospitals, and medications are easily
affordable.
The ease and affordability of international travel, as
well as technological improvements and higher standards
in many foreign hospitals, have greatly impacted the recent
increase in medical travel.
You can expect to save 15% to 85% on such popular procedures
as hip replacement, spinal work, heart surgeries, or various
cancer treatments. While plastic surgery and dental procedures
cannot be ignored, medically necessary surgeries are saving
patients the most money. A 60,000 USD to 70,000
USD hip replacement
procedure in the U.S. may cost 15,000 USD (with inclusives)
in India.
"Consider affordable healthcare in a timely fashion with
the highest standard of diligence and hospitality."
