Commitment to Safety |
Patient safety and quality
of medical providers are of the utmost importance to
Medical Tourism Solutions. The selection process for
doctors, dentists, surgeons, medical personnel and healthcare
facilities adheres to the highest standards of medical
excellence found in the United States.

Personal Inspection
At Medical Tourism Solutions
we regularly review accreditation compliance from our service
providers to ensure continued medical excellence.
We have personally inspected all medical facilities, as
well as interviewed each and every health care provider
in our network. Our medical practitioners are not only business
partners but also friends of the health care community we
are developing throughout Latin America. We have chosen
only the most skilled and quality individuals to ensure
an incredibly comfortable and healing experience.

Certification
and Accreditation
As part of our commitment to quality,
Medical Tourism Solutions has contracted only hospitals
and clinics that hold themselves to the highest standards.
All facilities must be accredited by domestic health authorities
and receive regular inspections. In addition, we feature
a number of hospitals that have received certification from
international organizations, such as the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO). We are further encouraging our
partner facilities to demonstrate their quality through
JCAHO accreditation, and a number have begun the accreditation
process. For further information on accreditation and certification,
please see the links below.

International
TrainingAll of our health
care providers have received educations from the foremost
medical institutions in Latin America, the US, Canada,
and Europe. Yet, at Medical Tourism Solutions we recognize
that part of treating a patient is understanding the
culture and expectations each patient will bring with
them. For this reason we focus on surgeons, doctors,
and dentists that have spent substantial practical time
in the US, Canada and Europe, educating themselves through
fellowships and residencies, as well as professional
conferences and conventions, where they not only improve
their medical knowledge, but also their cultural familiarity.

World-Class Technology
At Medical Tourism Solutions, we ensure
our chosen facilities maintain up-to-date technology and
equipment. From CT scans to laparoscopic cameras, anesthesiology
to sanitation equipment, we require our partners to meet
technology standards that would be found in respected hospitals
in the United States.
|
Insurance and Coverage
Each of our chosen hospitals and clinics
must maintain insurance coverage as dictated by domestic
law. In addition, we encourage our patients to consider
a temporary insurance policy issued by one of our health
insurance partners. Please contact us for more information
on insurance and liability.
|
Communication Access
To facilitate a worry-free experience,
Medical Tourism Solutions requires our partner service-providers
to have bi-lingual staff and be ready to accommodate the
international patient. All of our patients will have the
opportunity to speak with their chosen healthcare provider
over the telephone or through video chat before departure
to ensure comfort and peace-of-mind. In addition, Medical
Tourism Solutions also offers you the possibility of a personal
translator to be at your side throughout your entire medical
and vacation experience.
