Frequently Asked Questions

Medical tourism refers to the practice of traveling to another country to receive medical care—often at a lower cost, with faster access, or for specialized treatments not readily available at home.

Patients consider medical tourism for a variety of reasons, including:

• Affordable pricing compared to domestic healthcare systems
• Reduced waiting times for surgeries or specialist consultations
• Access to advanced procedures and technology
• High-quality care in internationally accredited hospitals
• The opportunity to combine recovery with travel in a comfortable, culturally rich environment

While it may seem cost-effective to contact hospitals directly, partnering with a trusted medical tourism company like Global Care Health offers greater value, peace of mind, and overall savings:

• Exclusive Pricing: Through strong partnerships with leading hospitals, we negotiate preferential rates not available to individuals.
• All-Inclusive Coordination: We handle everything—from treatment planning and doctor appointments to travel logistics and accommodations—saving you time and stress.
• Transparent Costs: No hidden fees. We provide a clear, itemized quote so you understand exactly what you’re paying for.
• Advocacy & Support: We act as your patient advocate, ensuring that your needs are prioritized at every step.
• Local Insights: From choosing the right specialist to finding a comfortable recovery environment, we bring in local knowledge and on-ground support for a smoother experience.
