Quality Medical Tourism Partners Needed in Costa Rica
A medical tourism facilitator is responsible for building real partnerships with care providers in their community. So many of these companies seem to be popping up these days with little more than a web page and some advertising space ready for whoever is willing to pay a buck. Facilitators in our opinion have a responsibility to do their homework related to caregivers they recommend. This is too serious a business and too serious a decision being made by potential clients too undertake this lightly or from a distance.
Health Check will not promote or recommend a care provider or even a tour provider that we have not met and talked with and viewed their facilities and services firsthand. This is crucial to providing first rate service to our clients and why Health Check Costa Rica stands out in the field. We are not a company run in Illinois that has never had an employee or boss set foot in Costa Rica. We live here, we have ties to the community and we are here for the long haul. Yes it's very hard work touring the country to meet with and to add providers but this is the only way we feel we are living up to the responsibility that we have assumed. Building a great web site and having a Canadian SEO firm get the site a high ranking while never touching the ground here is the worst form of Internet cynicism.
Medical Tourism is poised to become a major industry and as it grows more standards and barriers to entry need to be raised. That is one reason why Health Check accepts and promotes the non-profit standards organization in Costa Rica Pro-Med. This is an organization with vision and credibility if not long reach and influence. Time I am sure will see this change.
