Medical Tourism Guide - Things to research - Medical Tourism Guidance

So far I've told you about benefits of medical tourism i.e a world class medical care at low cost. However because medical tourism industry is growing very fast there are many newbies and small medical tourism companies enter the market that can may mislead you and can potential put your life in danger. Thus you need to research carefully and decide which country, hospital and surgeon to choose for your treatment abroad. Below are few things that you need to research carefully:

• Search for medical tourism company in your area: Though many leading hospital abroad have international patients representative staff, it'd be nice if you can search a local medical tourism company. A medical tourism company can save you lots of time by offering different options to choose from their network.
• Ask for surgeon resume: Ask the medical tourism company or the hospital to provide surgeons resume, experience, medical qualification certificates etc. This makes sure you are getting treatment from a qualified and experienced doctor.
  
• Hospital accreditation - Its wise to choose JCI, ISO, JCAHO certified hospitals.
  
• Distance - for single day procedures like dental work you might choose a cross border country however for a procedure that can take longer stay in hospital you may travel to a far country where the procedure is cheaper.
  
• Communication - It's a nice idea to talk to the doctor/hospital first and discuss your medical condition with them first. You may also send your reports to seek consultation first, before you actually land in foreign country for treatment
• English speaking staff: Language can be a barrier and thus make sure the staff and the doctor is fluent in speaking English
  
• Payment options - there might be a case where a hospital ask for cash only, so its a good idea to know in advance if they accept credit cards, debit cards, travelers checks etc.
• Testimonials: Ask for the testimonials from previous medical tourists.

I hope these tips will be helpful to you.
