Medical tourism exposed through the eyes of two U.S. tourists

(PRWEB) May 20, 2005

Kimberlee Tyner, a Registered Nurse, and Kathy Bogardus, a retired schoolteacher, went to Penang, Malaysia in early March 2005 to undergo liposuction and full facial rejuvenation, respectively. During the television segment, Kimberlee and Kathy discuss all aspects of being a medical tourist.

With Medical tourism being the “topic du jour” and many articles appearing in regional and national press, MedRetreat, in conjunction with WCTI TV 12, is announcing the first television segment focusing on the medical tourists’ point of view. The program contains extensive interviews with two medical tourists who traveled to Malaysia to undergo cosmetic surgery.

Judson Anglin, Managing Director of MedRetreat, LLC, states, “We’re the first U.S. company to provide full service options to Americans who want to go overseas for medical procedures, cosmetic surgery or dentistry. To date, we’ve had phenomenal feedback from many satisfied clients going to Malaysia and Thailand through MedRetreat. There have been various appearances of hospitals and governments promoting medical tourism, but, never from the traveling medical tourists’ point of view.”

This program features medical tourism with a human face, genuine Americans discussing the international flight, surgery details and recuperation in exotic luxury. Anglin says, “MedRetreat offers a variety of worldwide destinations matching the best surgeon and holiday vacation with the medical tourists requirements. And, to ensure the comfort and confidence of travelers, our international partnerships with professional, English speaking aides, provide the unparalleled service and security of a personal attendant for the entire medical retreat.”

The segment airs on May 26th, 11:00 p.m. and May 27th around 6:45 a.m. on “Good Morning Eastern Carolina” broadcasted on WCTI TV 12 in eastern North Carolina.

Research and Markets: Medical Device Markets in the Asia Pacific Region: All Change in the Tiger Economies?

Dublin (PRWEB) June 10, 2005

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c18772) has announced the addition of Medical Device Markets in the Asia Pacific Region: All Change in the Tiger Economies? to their offering.

Business opportunities in the Asian medical device and equipment markets are very different from a few years ago. The traditional tiger economies, characterised by economic growth, free market environment, developed industry and investment in health and health infrastructure have had a long haul back from the financial instability and economic downturn in the 1990′s.

This new report provides a regional overview as well as detailed information on nine key Asia/Pacific markets. The report provides five year forecasts to 2010. Also provided is a market outlook for 9 key markets, market valuations and markets put in their regional context.

Tiger clubs? At the same time, markets which had hitherto excited little industry or investor interest have emerged as real areas of opportunity for suppliers and service companies alike. Diverse influences – from deregulation and better trade links to improved access and the rise of medical tourism – are seeing markets such as Vietnam take an increasingly important role in the region.

With established western markets maturing, serious attention is being paid to the countries where manufacturers can see significant long-term growth. However, effective planning is vital, and impartial, thoroughly researched business data is essential to fully appreciate the current market status as a basis for future development.

In addition to highly detailed analysis of each market, the report provides a thought-provoking and comparative examination, putting opportunities into their current and future context. The report analyses the following key markets: Hong Kong, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam

Imprimis Life Releases an In-Depth Research on "The Healthcare Scenario of the Southeast Asia"

(PRWEB) September 27, 2005

Imprimis Life, India’s leading dedicated healthcare and Life sciences specialist, released an indigenous in-depth study analysis on ‘The Healthcare Scenario of the Southeast Asia” today. The research was aimed at underlining the medical advantages that the Southeast Asian countries exhibit in comparison to the monetary disadvantages the West is struggling to overcome.

The research is a comparative analysis of the five Southeast Asian countries namely India, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand. The study gives a comprehensive break up of the market scenario of the five potential nations, individually highlighting their strengths and weakness.

Propelled by health conscious people and escalating medical costs the West is looking towards East for medical support. Southeast countries with their indigenous advantages of supreme medical treatment with low cost production and skilled workforce have emerged as the hot seats for medical tourism of the world.

While a heart surgery costs $ 30,000 in the US, it costs $ 6,000 in Southeast Asia. Similarly, a bone marrow transplant costs $ 26,000 here compared to $ 250,000 in the US, this disparity in cost difference has leveraged Southeast Asia as a competitive strength to promote medical tourism.

India as a healthcare hub is growing 30% annually and has a potential to attract over a million tourists per annum, augmenting its economic growth. India is also fast moving towards adopting international standards like accreditation of hospitals, providing the state-of-art healthcare facilities at far lesser prices compared to its western counterparts.

Aman Gupta, CEO, Imprimis Life Pvt Ltd on this occasion said “ With global revenues of an estimated $ 2.8 trillion, the healthcare industry is the world’s largest industry. The Indian healthcare industry has the potential to show the same exponential growth that the software and pharmaceutical industries have shown in the past decade .We at Imprimis being a pioneer in healthcare communications understand the growing competition and the importance of research to ensure the effective use of resources for the development of the healthcare sector”.
