MEDICAL TOURISM:
Traveling overseas for medical treatment is not new. In ancient Roman times documented cases of people traveling comparatively vast distances to locations of health were not uncommon. What is impressive and new is a huge number of patients requiring urgent care [but not able to afford the cost in their own countries like USA etc] doing the same thing in this era and internet, communication transparency and same level of treatment and great services provided by world class hospital in countries like India, Thailand, Costa-Rica etc providing fantastic treatment and post care services, while saving them thousands of dollars.
While many in countries like UK, who are not able to afford the waiting period for any surgery etc, are traveling overseas and also are those patients, who find that the high cost of elective, non-acute medical procedures coupled with a difficulty in assessing quality is making such procedures inaccessible or unattractive at home in the US, also prefer to travel overseas to countries like India, Thailand, Costa-Rica etc. and in turn find that they are ultimately satisfied with the treatment, practically no waiting period and world class service and follow-up cooperation from those hospitals, have made MEDICAL TOURISM click so fast and indeed it is a relief to their budgets as well.
The 'early movers' in this industry are the uninsured, the underinsured or those who travel for procedures that are not usually covered by insurance. However with the uninsured in the USA hovering around 60 million that is no small market. Various reports put the number of medical travelers leaving the USA each year between the realistic figure of 85,000 (McKinsey report) to the more optimist figure of 750,000 (Deloitte). A recent report by Deloitte indicated that by the year 2017 between 12 and 15 million Americans will travel overseas for treatment. Even if the authors are wrong by 50% it still is a huge number of patients traveling abroad specifically for medical treatment. Also are those patients from African and South American continent, who indeed want to get treated to serious ailments, are now preferring to travel to India etc because treatment costs and visa etc. procedure, in USA, UK, France, Germany, Switzerland are very prohibitive for them.
