“By adding international travel as a medical benefit, it enhances the members’ ability to travel internationally to manage their health care,” said Phelps. “Including Satori’s international centers of excellence and concierge medical travel program to our benefits plan was a natural next step.

Get Excellent Medical Advantages With Medical Tourism

Being in poor health seems like a nightmare for you due to expensive treatments and unavailability of desired and affordable services. People, who still avoid taking proper treatment due to these problems, can now take breath of relief, as medical tourism is there to provide them with affordable medical care as well as opportunity to explore new countries. Definitely, the lure of low cost and high tech services is a main reason that is making people desperate to pack their bags. While medical tourism is getting great hype by newspapers, magazines and T.V channels, most people are still unaware that it is becoming the integral part of every major hospital in numerous countries. Countries like India, Thailand, and Singapore are offering exclusive tourism cum medical vacations. No doubt that these countries have plenty of hospitals and clinics those are equipped with every latest technology and apparatus to support their services.


Every year more and more patients from all over the world are planning their vacations to get highly specialized and cost effective medical services. U.S. residents, who do not come under any insurance service, are considering overseas medical services more promising. As any insurance company is not liable to bear their medical expenses, they find it better to have treatment in abroad with less expenditure. Medical services in these destination countries are same as other developed countries; so why to pay more if you are getting same services with supplementary advantages. In some countries treatments are supported by refined research therefore, patients who are coming all the way from western developed countries may build up confidence in their treatments and services.


In order to provide best health solutions hospitals of destination countries motivate their staff to speak English so that all members of staff may communicate well with international patients. Additionally, some hospitals offer a vacation incentive to make the deal more attractive. Few years back, medical tourism was not as popular as it was lacking many services and treatment. However, with passing time and involvement of cosmetic, plastic, or elective surgery, more and more people are booking their packages for medical tourism. Today patients are also receiving life-saving medical operations such as heart surgery, brain surgery and disorder treatment. Hip replacements, cancer treatments and fertility work, have also become quite accepted in recent years. It is more affordable then your domestic health care even when you include airfare, hotels, travel insurance, car rentals, shopping, and dining. Therefore, is it not an excellent opportunity to maximize health benefits as well touring.


It is true that some destinations offer measures that are not available in many Western countries. For example, hip resurfacing was only treatment that was just permitted by FDI. Surprisingly it is available in most of the hospitals of these destination countries. The entire credit of this development goes to information technology that made medical tourism more affordable and globally available. International journey and main progress in medical science, medical tourism is becoming a well versed global trend. In fact, medical tourism is there to benefit international patients. People who are interested in knowing more about it can search on related websites on internet to get better options.

Dental Implants and More Indian Dentist Interview

From the Apollo Hospital Ahmedabad, India an interview Dr Palak Pandya about Implants, Bridges and Dental Care. How the costs in India are so much less as to make it more than worthwile to make the flight. Combining dental work with a trip to India can have many benefits and opportunities such as getting a cosmetic tune-up like a non-surgical face lift or a complete medical check up with the newest non-invasive procedures all at around 25% of what most western medical establishments charge. I waited two years to make a decision to go to India for treatment of my dental condition and right away upon my arrival I realized I could have gone much sooner. I had only used it as a last resort to correct a dental situation that was so overpriced in the US to the point of feeling like Medical Economic Rape. Instead of a last resort it should have been the first. For someone who works for himself and earns an uneven amount that is barely more than considered poverty level I needed a way around this EconoMed Rape(as I have come to think of it) and India proved to be a solution for me.

This is the closest thing to competition for hospital services that you can find. Combining medical services with travel is an excellent choice. Considering the inflated and bloated prices demanded by the
