MEDICAL TOURISM

Transcript: MEDICAL TOURISM Medical tourism is a trend that has emerged within the last half century. More than 500,000 residents of the United States travel overseas annually to get a medical procedure done. The concept of travelling from ones motherland to a foreign nation is the steadily increasing in popularity concept of MEDICAL TOURISM. POSITIVE ASPECTS Cost of medical procedures in the United States are increasing dramatically. At the same time the quality of healthcare in foreign nations is on a steady improvement. The uninsured American residents can get good quality medical services at lower prices in over-sea countries. Many procedures are not covered by insurance companies and or Medicare/Medicaid in the United States. Medical tourism allows patients a vacation in new countries, while they are getting treated. The Joint Commission International sets standards for foreign hospitals and clinics to meet, before they can be accreditted and be recommended to patients thinking of travelling abroad. Many procedures such as organ transplants are available in International Countries. There is a long organ transplant waitlist in the United States. Reproductive technology was considered illegal/unethical in the United States, but was practiced overseas. if the rate of medical procedures conducted in foreign nations continues to rise – there will be a gradual decline in the employment rate for medical professionals within the United States. medical malpractice suits: regulations are not followed as closely within foreign countries. If any unforeseen events were to occur – it might not be compensated for. A patient's insurance may or may not provide complete coverage, especially if traveling abroad because of the numerous risks involved Postoperative treatments are critical – with medical tourism it is difficult to make arrangements after the operation Traveling for two overseas can accumulate to be very costly and overwhelming for a patient and their family First hand viewing of the hospital usually cannot occur ahead of time, because of massive costs associated with traveling It is a major risk of faith that the foreign hospital or clinic will meet up to par with the patient’s expectations from the webpage As a team we believe that Medical tourism is a beneficial decision. One can search through the Joint Commission International database, to see where they can receive their medical treatments as early as possible It puts the least amount of burden on a patient’s bank account. Many innovative and futuristic ideas can be tested within these countries, i.e.: stem cell research Patients favor the idea that they can also vacation afterwards in a different country. Residents of the US are spending less money for the same goods and services, because they have a higher purchasing power in several countries We believe that human life is worth a risk so why should one settle for nothing, when there is an abundance of options all over the world?
