As scepticism declines and trust increases, the popularity of ‘foreign’ hospitals and Medical Tourism in general rises in relation. Whilst it’s always been known that the cost of procedures in such hospitals are much lower, it was always thought that the low costs came at the expense of quality.
Choosing where to go can be tricky, but it's usually a choice between luxury or convenience; make a holiday out of it and explore somewhere new or get it over and done with as quickly as possible.
Although we aim to provide all the research material and relevant information you could ever need, we appreciate some customers may wish to know even more. For that reason, we’ve put together a few pointers which can be used as a guide to everything you should want to know about your hospital and doctor. But rest assured, all the important, ‘need to know’ information will be available to you on MyMediTravel.
As with any medical procedure, particularly surgery, the recuperation and rest period that follows must be respected and any advice given by the medical professionals should be adhered to. With Medical Tourism, it’s slightly different in the sense that the same medical staff and the doctor won’t be available when you’re back home. So, it’s essential to notify your local doctor beforehand, as they’ll be your first point of contact should you require any professional advice.
If you are already committed to a travel insurance plan or prefer to stick with your current insurer, contact them directly and find out exactly how your current plan covers you and if there’s a need to upgrade the cover. You may be required to increase the cover at an extra cost or to take out a new plan altogether.
Regardless of the savings patients make by traveling overseas for medical treatments, most domestic health insurance policies will not cover the costs, so medical tourists must fund their own travel and treatments. For those in urgent need of treatment but are lacking the available funds, it will come as a relief to know that Medical Tourism financing is available.
Only a few years ago, medical tourism was a blip in overall global tourism spending. Today, it is a multi-billion dollar industry that is expected to increase by up to 25 percent per year over the next 10 years.
Although the terms Medical Tourism and Medical Travel are relatively new, the idea of traveling outside of your own country has existed for thousands of years. However, the modern history dates back only 30-40 years.
With 64 JCI-accredited facilities and hundreds of other private hospitals, clinics and dental clinics, Thailand is the new regional powerhouse. Medical tourism costs are some of the lowest in South East Asia, particularly when compared to Singapore and Malaysia.
