Aetna endorses medical tourism

In today’s Crain’s New York Business, there is a good article by Gale Scott titled “Aetna plans offers cheaper surgery overseas”. 

The piece also talks about AMA and their approach and we would urge caution against categorizing AMA as a single monolith.

The overall approach validates our thrust here at PreviMed, where, as we said n the recent press release, we are “up-leveling the medical travel trend”.

More from the latest press release:

PreviMed’s products will enable insurance companies and self-insured businesses to engage in the medical tourism space to offer value-added, safety-focused treatment options - along with tremendous cost savings - to their members, employees and patients.
