Surgical Escape

As medical costs soar in the U.S., the number of uninsured has swelled, exceeding 46 million, or nearly 16% of Americans last year, according to Census Bureau statistics. As a result, increasing numbers are choosing what's known as medical tourism and heading overseas for more affordable surgeries from highly reputable hospitals...

This is a highly specialized niche of travel service that enables clients to travel to a foreign country to receive medical treatment while taking advantage of local tourism opportunities. For most patients, the primary benefit is the huge cost savings. Even accounting for travel and accommodations expenses, clients obtain comprehensive treatment and recovery with total costs equal to a few nights stay in a U.S. hospital. And, while the costs of treatment are dramatically lower, the quality of care is on par with -- if not, better than -that in the U.S. Many of these medical tourists are uninsured or under-insured. Others are going for procedures not covered by their insurance ie. cosmetic surgery. Treatment abroad averages one-eighth the cost of comparable surgeries performed in the United States. In 2006 alone, an estimated 150,000 Americans traveled abroad for medical care, a number expected to double by next year, according to Josef Woodman, author of "Patients Beyond Borders: Everybody's Guide to Affordable, World-Class Medical Tourism." Nearly half of those - around 70,000 - had medically necessary surgeries like hip replacements or spinal work, heart surgeries like bypass or valve replacements, and even cancer treatments.

Health Matters International currently offers medical procedures through our partner hospital in Costa Rica. This facility has been researched thoroughly and provides high quality care at an affordable cost. . Ongoing research is being conducted to expand into high quality hospitals facilities in other countries as well.

LookSmart Optical

In The Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers estimate that approximately 14 million U.S. people aged 12 and older have "visual impairment," and that more than 11 million of them could improve their vision with corrective lenses.

Due to the rising cost of prescription eyewear in the US, many benefit programs have reduced or eliminated coverage. With little or no insurance coverage, individuals have struggled to pay these high costs themselves. Health Matters International helps by providing high quality prescription eyewear at significantly reduced costs.
