Agenda :: World Medical Tourism & Global Health Congress
Obama’s healthcare reform might seem revolutionary in terms of changing the landscape of American healthcare, but the implementation of the bill will take several years to put into practice. During those years, the cost of healthcare in the US will continue to rise, as will the number of individuals that lack insurance or are underinsured. These two factors will bring new market opportunities for corporations looking to cut costs and tackle these issues. This congress will discuss how medical tourism is an example of an innovative market solution that has gained popularity due to its high quality, yet cost effective nature and its ability to provide healthcare access to the uninsured individuals. Government officials within the US are more likely to accept medical tourism and implement it in political and legislative agendas when it proves to be a guaranteed cost-saving mechanism and has demonstrated beneficial outcomes with large insurance carriers and the American public
