Imagine recuperating after surgery on a white sandy beach sipping island teas or in the comfort of a spa while receiving full-body massages, or savoring exotic foods, visiting tourist attractions and shopping for yourself and the family. Most of us need specialized medical treatment from time to time, and most of us plan vacations every year or so. Why not combine the two?
According to the National Coalition on Health Care, more than 500,000 Americans traveled abroad to receive medical and dental work in 2006. And this is not an isolated trend. Every year, millions of patients from around the globe flock to some of the hottest medical tourism destinations in order to receive five-star treatment at unbelievable prices. With soaring health care costs and long waiting lines for medical procedures, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find quality, affordable treatment. Whether you want a knee replacement, heart surgery, or facelift, you might have to dig deep into your wallet or wait several months before receiving the medical or dental care that you require. But why pay exorbitant prices at home when you can travel abroad and receive the same treatment (if not better) from a fully certified medical facility for a fraction of the price?
