More employers embracing medical tourism

Today’s article in the Workforce Managment, titled “Large Employers Hopping Aboard Medical Tourism” talks about how an organization - Doctors Care based in South Carolina, US - will support medical treatment overseas.

Specific procedures are : heart bypass surgeries, hysterectomies, total knee replacements, total hip replacements and spinal fusions.

Not too much new info for regular readers of this blog. The article ends with a cautionary note for patients.
