Medical tourism is growing increasingly popular with adults and seniors today. This field of health and wellness tourism has exploded because of rising medical care costs for dental care, vision care, laboratory tests, medical treatments and procedures for a multitude of conditions such as COPD, diabetes, heart care and other issues that commonly afflict today’s baby boomer generation. Finding and affording such medical care is becoming increasingly difficult for seniors today, due in part because of the faltering economy, but most commonly because pensions, Social Security and retirement funds are unable to keep up with healthcare costs.

 

To date, India is one of the most popular destinations for medical tourists because of their wide range of high quality yet low-cost procedures. Highly trained physicians and many hospitals within India such as the Artemis Health Institute offer services such as cancer treatment, bariatric procedures, orthopedic knee surgery, obesity and weight loss care and ophthalmology specialists that may be bundled into package deals.

 

Singapore enjoys high-quality hospitals accredited by the JCI, such as the National Heart Center that offers cardiac care in angiography, heart valve surgery and other thoracic care. Thailand rivals India in quality and pricing structures and has long been known as the ultimate destination for world-class private healthcare facilities and highly trained surgical staff.

 

Facilities in Latin American countries are well known for being able to provide high quality dental work, and prices there are one third to one half lower than those found in the United States. Northern Europe, as well as Western European countries such as Hungary, Germany, and Poland. Today’s baby boomers want excellent and affordable health care. They’re crossing borders to meet their needs.

A large percent of baby boomers (those between the ages of 45-65) are currently uninsured. Many who belong to this age group have lost their jobs due to aging, unemployment or downsizing and are no longer covered by affordable health care or insurance.

 

Traveling beyond local borders offers this group, more than any other demographic, the opportunity to pursue and receive premium healthcare, alternative treatments and travel, all at the same time. Boomers are leading the way to more affordable healthcare, seeking medical care overseas to address such needs as knee and hip replacement surgeries, cardiac care, and alternative treatments for chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, orthopedic procedures, and dental care.

 

American boomers needing dental care and prescriptions often travel south of the border into Mexico or even as far as Brazil, Argentina, and Costa Rica for their needs. Dental procedures as well as medications in Latin American countries is less than half of what comparable procedures and medications cost in the United States. Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia are popular destinations for those needing hip or knee replacement surgeries. Europeans are making trips to Hungry and Poland for dental and cosmetic procedures at great savings, even after including the cost of travel and hotel or clinic accommodations.

 

Hospitals in South America or Asia generally cost one half of the price charged in the United States and Europe. For example, cardiac and orthopedic surgeries performed in India can save health travelers nearly $20,000 or more with one surgical procedure.

 

The health and wellness industry is booming, and today’s older adults and boomers are leading the way to a new revolution in affordable health care known as medical tourism.

 When looking for medical providers abroad, some of the first questions an individual may want answered include:

 

·         Convenience - where is the facility located?  How will I get there?

·         Customized services - will the facility be able to meet my specific needs?

·         Acknowledging risks - what are the risks involved not only traveling to this destination, but of my specific surgical procedure or treatment? Is staff at this facility open and honest about all potential risks of such procedures or treatments?

·         Providing unique solutions - will the facility be able to cater their services to meet my specific needs? Are they open to the prospect of working with me to solve my particular problem or issue?

·         Quality of service - is this facility accredited and approved not only according to their country’s accreditation levels, but also by international accreditation facilities such as JCI (Joint Commission International)?

 

PlacidWay offers an informative article Choosing an International Medical Provider on what to look for when choosing international medical providers in more detail. Whether you’re looking for cosmetic/plastic surgery, obesity or weight loss surgery treatments and procedures, or you need orthopedic surgery for your hip, affordable health care is out there.

 

For example, relatively minor cardiac surgical procedures that range in the placement of stents to coronary bypass or grafts may cost anywhere from $30,000 to $250,000 as compared to about $5,000 to $20,000 or less for the same procedures in India. Orthopedic treatments such as a partial hip replacement procedure performed in Thailand or Singapore may cost half of what is charged in the United States. The same applies for other procedures such as knee replacement. Cosmetic surgical costs in the United States run thousands of dollars per procedure, compared to less than a thousand in India.
