Why go abroad for treatment ?

The first question one should ask is why not go abroad for medical treatment!? Thousands of other people like you have already had successful treatment abroad and thousands more will do it this year.

The main reasons to seek medical treatment abroad are:

Cost: For the majority of people this is the number one reason. If you are one of the estimated 50 million uninsured Americans out there, saving money by looking abroad for treatment is something you may well consider. Savings from going abroad for treatment can be as much as 80% cheaper when compared to the costs at home.

Waiting list times: This is often a problem in Canada and more so in the UK where patients are entitled to free universal healthcare. Although waiting times are improving, for many they can be frustratingly long. Those who want treatment quickly may be forced to consider private healthcare which may be too expensive in their own country.
