Patients travelling abroad for medical treatment are increasing and there are five main reasons people travel abroad for treatment:
1.Patients have family or friends in their destination country who can help during their recovery period.
2.The waiting lists for government funded healthcare in the patients home country are too long.
3.Patients want to combine sick leave from work with a holiday and recover in peace.
4.The cost of treatment is cheaper abroad.
5.Treatments not available in the home country are available abroad.
If you fall into categories 1 and 3, the destination of your medical treatment is likely pre-decided. If you fall into categories 2 or 4 however, you have research to do.
