Brazil Gets Credit For Helping Start Medical Tourism

Brazil originally opened up medical options for patients outside of the US! In 1999, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein was the first outside of the US to be accredited by JCI.

United States Medical Tourism

During the past century, Medical Institutions in the United States have established themselves as world-class centers of excellence. According to a report produced by the Deloitte Center for Health Solutions, more than 400,000 non-US residents travelled to the United States in 2008 for medical treatment, with steady growth in international patients every year. Whether it is research, training, diagnosis, innovation or implementation of highly complex procedures, the United States has proven itself to be on the cutting edge of medicine. Medical professionals in the US possess impeccable credentials and the proven abilities to carry out these tasks. 

In the United States, it is often possible to find the same medical equipment and expertise in private hospitals that is often limited to high level, specialized institutions in many other countries. American doctors have the advantage of getting their training at some of the best and most world-renowned universities such as Stanford, Harvard, Rice and Johns Hopkins. 

When it comes to ethical codes and accountability, there is perhaps no other country that has such stringent requirements as the United States. The highly qualified, skilled doctors in the United States wield the world’s best technological advancements. The prevalence of e-consults allows patients located anywhere in the world to get inputs from some of the top medical practitioners in the US. Although costs are higher when compared with Asian countries, there is little doubt that for complex procedures, difficult diagnoses and conditions, the United States leads the way for those seeking quality medical and surgical treatment.
