International Medical Travel Healthcare Health Care

Why Travel to an International Hospital for Medical Care?
There are four (4) factors driving the increased popularity of medical travel (commonly referred to as medical tourism):
- Security and Anonymity Surgery and recovery abroad assures your privacy;
- Access to high quality medical care at lower costs; and,
- Immediate availability of procedures without long waitlists; and,
- Innovative treatments that may not be available where you live.
As were seeing globalization take place in all aspects of our lives, medicine is no exception. Healthcare providers are involved in worldwide collaboration, the availability of state-of-the-art medical technology is ever-broadening and facilities all over the globe are adhering to standards formerly associated only with western medicine.
Due to the ever-rising costs of malpractice insurance, education and infrastructure, healthcare in the US is among the most expensive in the world. By traveling internationally, individuals can receive the same treatment from qualified, proven physicians for 30-80% less.

All of the Medical procedures that we recommend are arranged as complete packages. One quoted price covers everything in the foreign country the hotel, the hospital, the surgery, the recovery - everything. The only service that the patient arranges and pays for outside the surgical procedure is round trip air travel to the foreign country for the medical procedure. We recommend that the medical travel patient engage the services of an excellent travel service such as the travel services of the Automobile Club in their state.
The Icon Group provides the gateway to a class of medical providers without equal in the world. We refer patients to these medical procedures that are performed by, what we consider, are the best practitioners of the medical arts in the world.
If the cost of your procedure or surgery exceeds $6,500.00 in the United States, you should seriously consider medical travel to an International hospital destination.
Why People Go Abroad for Medical and Dental Procedures
Anonymity. Patients often want surgery and recovery to be a private matter. Medical procedures abroad add a layer of security and anonymity for those who choose to keep their surgery a private matter.
- Cost savings. Savings are astounding --- up to 90% in many cases. This brings the surgery into reach for uninsured individuals and self-insured businesses.
- Quality assurance. Medical Tourism hospitals have undergone a rigorous accreditation process that assures quality standards at least on par with the U.S. Many overseas hospitals partner with major U.S. medical facilities. The physicians and surgeons have usually been trained in the United States, France, or Great Britain.
- Short waiting times. Waiting times are virtually eliminated. For organ transplants, this can be a life saving advantage.

- Success rates. International medical tourism hospitals that we refer to have virtually the same, or in many procedures due to experience, are unmatched in the U.S.
- Access. Some procedures that are not yet FDA approved, such as Disk Nucleus Replacement, are regularly performed overseas.
- Personal attention. Medical travelers typically find the personal attention they receive overseas is far superior to that received in U.S. hospitals.
- Appropriate recovery time. U.S. patients who go overseas find they're not rushed to leave the hospital as in America. Patients are discharged only when they are well underway to complete recovery. They are then moved to nearby lodging where they're monitored closely.

- Top-notch facilities. Many hospitals attracting international patients are brand new, with all the latest equipment and technology. Cyber knife and robotic technology is common in foreign hospitals that we refer to.
- Adventure. While successful surgery and recovery are the first priorities, medical travel affords the opportunity to experience a different culture, in a country that may not have been on the patient's list of destinations for leisure travel.
