WorldClassHealth’s global healthcare program offers you the option to travel to certain leading specialty hospitals for pre-approved medical procedures and specialized pharmaceutical treatments with no out-of-pocket costs.
By partnering with top-tier multi-specialty hospitals, WorldClass Health provides access to some of the best affordable care in the world. These facilities are accredited by the U.S. Joint Commission, and offer highly qualified physicians, attentive nursing staff and medical technicians, state-of-the-art equipment, and excellent coordination of care.
Patients choose this option not only for the cost savings, but also for the exceptional care and attention they receive, and the rewarding experience they enjoy at destinations such as Costa Rica, Cayman Islands and Cancun.
This program now also provides you the option to travel to Columbus, Ohio for musculoskeletal (bone, joint and spine) procedures.
Traveling by air and going abroad is a first-time experience for many patients. WorldClass Health prepares you for the experience and coordinates with travel and treatment providers who help simplify the process and adhere to prevailing safety and risk avoidance protocols.
Most procedures require a 5-to-10 day recovery stay after surgery. Arrangements are made for patients and their companions to stay at a full-service hotel or resort, all specifically equipped to cater to the needs of patients. Provisions are made for meals, nursing care and rehabilitation during the entire stay.
