Health care at 1/10th the price is only 20 hours away
A luxurious health care alternative for some 40 million uninsured Americans lies in the hospitals of faraway countries.
In case you missed it, 60 Minutes had a fascinating segment last week on private hospitals catering to foreigners in both Thailand and India. These places look more like luxury hotels than hospitals, employ doctors that have practiced at top medical institutions in the U.S, and do it all at a fraction of the cost.
Could this be a solution to out of control health care costs? I think it has a lot of promise. Head over and watch the free segment, or give the whole article a read if you have the time.
