Healthbase medical tourism plan for insurers and third party administrators

BENEFITS FOR INSURERS AND THIRD PARTY ADMINISTRATORS (TPA)

Significant savings
The biggest benefit that insurers get is significant savings. Insurers can save thousands of dollars on individual cases, even with transportation, recovery and treatment costs factored into the overall price, if patients elect to receive their medical treatment abroad or dental treatment abroad.

Expanded customer base
Medical tourism is a tool to attract more clients through low-cost service plans where any major medical treatments are performed abroad. These more affordable plans make it possible for many small businesses to offer medical insurance benefits to their staff.

Differentiation
A medical tourism offering provides a real point of differentiation in the highly competitive insurance industry.

Increased customer satisfaction
There is no better way to gain the favor of patients than to offer them an all-expense paid trip to an exotic destination. While the proposition may seem overly generous initially, this is a true win-win situation. Insurers can cut costs while patients receive outstanding care and exciting travel opportunities.

Optional service offering
Medical tourism offering may be provided along with the regular service offerings. So patients are given the option of receiving non-urgent treatments overseas and any urgent treatments at home.


BENEFITS TO POLICY HOLDERS

Exceptional quality of care
Healthbase's international partner hospitals are committed to providing top quality healthcare services at low costs. This is demonstrated by the fact that many of them are either internationally or locally accredited.

Low cost
Since the cost of treatment overseas is a fraction of the costs in the US, insurers can offer medical tourism plans at reduced rates. For the policy holder it translates into low monthly premiums and low or no deductibles/co-payments. The insurance company may also pay for the transportation and recovery retreat.

Immediate service
When your health is at risk, waitlists are not an option. Healthbase can connect policyholders with international medical facilities and international dental facilities within a few working days.

Many choices
Medical tourism makes for an added option for healthcare needs which yields not only low cost high quality services but is also readily accessible

Opportunity to travel overseas
The opportunity to travel overseas makes the medical tourism offering more appealing.

Healthbase's Dental Tourism provides a wide range of dental procedures through its partner dental offices and hospitals network in Mexico, Panama, Thailand, Singapore and India.
Over two hundred medical, dental and cosmetic procedures are available in various categories: Orthopedic procedures such as hip replacement, Birmingham hip resurfacing, artificial knee replacement, knee surgery, cosmetic procedures such as breast augmentation, face lift, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction, dental procedures such as bridges, implants, crowns, and procedures in categories such as cardiac, vascular, spinal, obesity, eye, LASIK, urology, general surgery, plastic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, weight-loss surgery, wellness and much more.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
