New idea - medical tourism
[See previous new idea]
This isn't a "breaking news" new idea, but it is new to me because I know someone who is about to give it a try. It seems somehow bizarre that it has come to this, but there is a now a travel category called Medical tourism. Here is a FAQ on it:
Medical Tourism FAQ
At the bottom of the FAQ are some price comparisons which are kind of surprising. This article from Newsweek is also interesting:
Indian hospitals are outsourcing care

Hi Marshall,
As you said the concept of medical tourism isn't really new. However, its been pulling alot of steam off late. With healthcare costs soaring in the developed nations. People from countries such as US, Canada and UK to name a few are increasingly visiting countries like India, Malaysia among others to undertake basic operations like dental implants, cosmetic surgery to more life saving procedures like cardiac bypass surgery or bone marrow transplants. For more on the world of medical tourism visit Medical Tourism
Cheers,
