Medical Tourism an alternative to high health care costs

I know that we have got to get the cost of health care down here in the States and make it affordable. But for now we have to find cheap health care on our own which brings me to this little article that I had found today.

With the ever increasing health care costs here in the States, there is actually an alternative and it is called Medical Tourism. It sounds like a crazy idea, but this idea has had an increase of Americans going over seas to third world countries to have major surgeries done. That increase has been about 20% per year according to England’s Financial Times and it has been noted that the savings have been up to 75%! I think that this is definitely an interesting article and something to perhaps think about if you are planning on having a major surgery done. Link.
