Medical Tourism?

With Obamacare on the horizon and the unknown ahead of us, medical tourism may be a fast growing industry in the near future.
One such company is Patients With Passports. They are based in Minnesota and help people travel to Seoul, South Korea to take advantage of less expensive treatment with Proton Beam Therapy at the National Cancer Center, www.ncc.re.kr.. Click on upper right corner of their home page for English.

Medical tourism is traveling to another country for healthcare. For decades, foreigners have traveled to the United States for medical treatment. Now it's Americans heading abroad for medical care, a response to the exorbitant cost of healthcare here. In 2006, an estimated half million Americans did so -- and that number is expected to soar over coming years.
Patients With Passports helps these so-called "medical refugees." They are an international medical care arranger. They help Americans decide the best place to go for treatment, given the person's current health, required treatment, budget, personal preferences and travel experience. And once a client has decided, they make all arrangements, for both medical treatment and travel. They make going abroad for healthcare safer, easy and inexpensive.
You may contact them at www.patientswithpassports.com.

More tomorrow.
Have a good Thursday.
Blessings,
Rick
