As a
Medical Tourism Consulting firm, we have a
30 year history as International Leisure Tour Operators, and
became one of 1st Medical Tourism Facilitators in the USA.
It is our role to represent YOU in every phase of your offshore
medical procedure, and provide the best information
available to assist you in making the best decisions.
Unlike many Facilitators, we work ONLY FOR YOU, and the information, guidance, and
support that we provide is never compromised by
commissions or incentives from any of our providers. THIS is the
way Medical Tourism is supposed to be !
-
Among the BEST
Medical & Surgical Providers in the world... Global
Surgery Network has explored the
credentials and personally inspected some of the most qualified JCI
(Joint Commission International)
Accredited Hospitals and Board Certified International Physicians
and Surgeons in the world. We have been involved in Medical Tourism
as a "facilitator" since 2007, and International Leisure Tour
operators since 1985. No company knows more about Overseas Travel
and
Medical Tourism than Global Surgery Network.
-
Our role is to provide you with all of the information and knowledge
that we have gained, so that you can make the most competent and
experienced decisions involving the country, the hospital, the
physician, and equally important... the overall recovery and travel
experience.
-
Most patients explore Medical
Tourism to save money... only to find the facilities in
our Network are equal to, and in most cases better rated than those
in the US. This is why
over 1 Million patients per year travel outside of the USA for a
procedure.
-
The cost of your procedure will
typically be 60 - 70% savings from US prices. How is this
possible ??? Simply because the cost of operations of
the facilities and staff are greatly reduced.
Many of the Hospitals that we recommend are actually owned and
operated by some of the finest medical facilities in the USA, (like
Johns Hopkins, Harvard Medical, and dozens of the finest USA Medical
Schools and
Universities). Physicians here in the USA spend 85% of their income
to support their work. Things like office, staff, insurance
regulations, write-offs, malpractice insurance, and FDA
regulations and procedures, have turned the most expensive medical
establishment in the world, to being #37 in outcomes and performance
(Based on information from the World Health Organization).
What about Malpractice
Insurance ???
Every physician and facility that we use has equal mal-practice
insurance to those here in the USA, but the rates are 70% less than
physicians have to pay when practicing here. Also, Physicians in
countries like Asia (as
an example) are not just sued for malpractice, but "criminally
charged" if they are shown to be incompetent or in error. Also, as
a "back-up" we offer after-care insurance so that when you
return to your home you will be protected, and
80% of our facilities are owned and operated by USA corporations... so
you are equally and often better protected.
Our fee is straightforward and
simple... You will arrange and pay all of your
medical service providers directly. Starting on the day that you
contact us to assist you, we start providing you with all of the
information that you'll need to start making the best informed
decisions, and guide you along the process. From beginning to end,
you're NEVER alone... we guide and assist you as the procedure
is being arranged, help you in the selection process, and provide you
with all of the answers that you'll need to make the best informed
decisions. When you arrive in the host country, we have our own
agent meet you and stay in contact with you 24/7. That Medical
Concierge is there to assure that everything goes as planned. Upon your return, we will follow-up with you to make sure that your
recovery goes as expected.
THIS is how Medical Tourism is supposed to be,
and we are proud to announce the appointment of our new CFO, Vikki Ford
Schafer, and our new Florida office in St Petersburg.
