How do I choose my destination?

Choosing your medical tourism location is individual. Some procedures are only performed in specific hospitals or countries. Specific treatments are better provided in certain climates or facilities (such as the Dead Sea for psoriasis patients). In other cases the patient can choose the most appealing alternative in terms of quality of care, distance from his own country, prices, local languages, preferable climate and more.

What are the benefits of Medical Tourism?

International hospitals and medical care centers can provide a viable and timely alternative medical treatment to individuals. They provide high quality medical care at affordable prices. Medical tourism is a good option for elective surgery (not covered by insurance) or fertility treatments preformed in privacy and accompanied by a vacation and a cultural experience, they are also suitable for serious medical conditions (as long as the doctor approves the travel), dental care, or when a patient wants to avoid the long wait for procedures and surgeries that are classified as non emergency. Medical tourists come from all places (including the United States, the UK, Middle East, Europe and more).

Which medical services are provided?

The typical medical services include elective procedures (such as cosmetic surgeries), complex surgeries (knee replacement, hip replacement, cardiac surgery) dental surgeries, IVF treatments, bone marrow transplants, climatotherapy treatments and more. The list of medical services offered includes every type of care from the simplest to life- saving procedures.

Why is medical care cheaper abroad?

Fees are derived from labor costs, administrative expenses, taxes, insurance costs etc. Some of the more attractive medical travel destinations can offer cheap health care due to low local costs and expenses. Low insurance rates, less expensive accommodation or low cost labor allow local health care travel agencies to provide high quality medical care at a low rate.
