Recently I tacked a foreign medical adventure in Thailand to the end of a group trip.

For several years I studied options to U.S medical care and discovered Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok, a facility rated among the top 10 in the world. My curiosity for this medical center peaked after viewing a documentary on TV.

Several months prior to the trip I visited their website at www.bumrungrad.com. After viewing general information and health check-up packages available, I answered a few online questions to ensure my selected comprehensive health check-up for women over 40 was best suited for me. With a few key strokes an appointment was requested and confirmed within 24 hours.

The key takeaway from this adventure is you can have an exotic vacation with health care for the same price as the cost of just the medical testing/procedure in the U.S. Plus the level of efficiency, courtesy and care is excellent. Over 1 million people, from all over the world,  visit Bumrungard each year, so they must be doing something right.  This is an adventure well worth taking to explore other medical options.
