The two bottom-lines in business are people and profit. Companies value employees as the core of their business operations, and understand that a healthy employee base makes sound business strategy.
Yet even as employers aim to provide their employees with the most advantageous health packages, they are increasingly under pressure. First, the alarming costs of health care in the United States and United Kingdom threaten to compromise quality or coverage of health insurance plans. Second, employee-patients demand better benefits and global options with their growing awareness of current medical trends and increased engagement in their own wellbeing.
At the crux of rising costs and industry pressure to attract and retain the best minds through enticing benefit packages, employer groups stand to substantially benefit from Medical Travel. Medical Travel, or obtaining health care treatments in foreign or distant domestic facilities, is a safe and affordable option for medical care that yields quality results. Medical travel's key benefits make it an ideal option for employers: cost-savings and price value, medical excellence and improved patient satisfaction.
For employee-patients facing high-deductible plans and co-pays, medical travel assures economical medical treatments; immediate availability of procedures; access to state-of-the-art treatments that are not available where they live; and access to U.S.-trained physicians at fully accredited hospitals offshore.
Veiovis GlobalAccess harnesses the advantages of medical travel and adds even greater value to its proposition, as a medical travel facilitator specializing in excellent health care management.
Its extensive background in health insurance and clinic operations assures that your medical bases– pre- to post-procedure – are covered following the highest quality and ethical standards. A partnership with Veiovis secures a worry-free approach to health care and insurance paper work, as Veiovis takes the helm of the medical coordination process.
