”Medical travel?” You mean, medical tourism? Like, all of those people fleeing America’s overpriced healthcare system for places like Indonesia where they can have that heart bypass surgery without going bankrupt?
That kind of medical travel?
Why, yes:
What We Do
In the search for higher quality, lower cost healthcare, you may have come across a concept described as medical “tourism”—the notion of individuals traveling abroad for care and savings. Far from a new idea, people have been traveling beyond their own borders in the pursuit of healing for thousands of years. And while there are certainly attractions to see and benefits to be gained from traveling to new places as a tourist, don’t be mislead. The concept of serious medical travel for businesses and individuals, from an industry leader with decades of healthcare expertise, is both compelling and available now from BridgeHealth.
You know, it’s true. Where there’s shit one always finds flies.
And how absolutely perfect that the guy who popularized the whole supply-side fairy tale would feed off the pile of dog poo that is our American healthcare system.
No wonder Republicans didn’t bother to fix healthcare all those years they were in power. There’s too much money to be made by keeping it broken.
