What We Do

In the search for higher quality, lower cost healthcare, you may have come across a concept described as medical “tourism”—the notion of individuals traveling abroad for care and savings. Far from a new idea, people have been traveling beyond their own borders in the pursuit of healing for thousands of years.

And while there are certainly attractions to see and benefits to be gained from traveling to new places as a tourist, don’t be mislead. The concept of serious medical travel for businesses and individuals, from an industry leader with decades of healthcare expertise, is both compelling and available now from BridgeHealth.

Why Medical Travel?

It's really as simple as 1, 2, 3.

Quality: Both domestic (US) and international healthcare from BridgeHealth’s World-Class Provider Networks™ is uniformly superior, with outcomes data and client satisfaction monitored by internal and external sources. Domestic facilities are rated with either a HealthGrades 5-star and a CareChex check+ symbol (top 25%) rating. The net result many times is higher quality care than you can find in your own home market.

Savings: BridgeHealth has aggressively contracted for medical case pricing—inclusive of all hospital, physician and anesthesiologist fees for the episode. For domestic medical travel, this translates to 30-50% saving, with 30-80% available internationally. Whether you’re a self-insured employer, an employee or individual paying for your own care, this means tremendous value.

Access: Whether you’re traveling from Houston to Dallas, Denver to Monterrey, or Vancouver to Bangkok, you can have little-to-no-wait access to the care you want. Through the BridgeHealth, you’ll gain entry to quality centers for cardiac, orthopedic, spinal, bariatric and general surgery needs.
