Medical Tourism Facilitator's Handbook

Providing chronic care patients with the ability to travel, medical tourism facilitators work with hospitals and physicians domestically and abroad to arrange referral networks for services, diagnostics, and follow-up care. They coordinate everything from travel arrangements to legal documentation. The first book of its kind, this work covers airport codes and layouts, immigration issues, immunizations and vaccinations, confidentiality / privacy issues, care in transit, and much more to provide a complete handbook for seasoned facilitators and those just entering the field. It also provides invaluable hard to find information for companions, paid or otherwise, who must take on this challenge.
