In order to host a private event on medical tourism for the US market, the Korea Tourism Organization, Global Healthcare Resources (GHR), and the Medical Tourism Association have joined forces.

Americans are looking for solutions for their healthcare needs outside of their country, taking advantage of opportunities for medical travel to places that provide timely, high-quality, and reasonably priced healthcare services.
“During the pandemic, we assisted in connecting thousands of patients with healthcare professionals. According to Jonathan Edelheit, president of GHR and the Medical Tourism Association, “when we emerge from the epidemic, we expect demand to expand globally and healthcare consumers to travel in greater numbers than ever before.”
Those who are already actively involved in medical tourism or who are interested in getting into it will be able to network at this exclusive, private business event with US insurance companies, employers, insurance agents and consultants, travel agents, and others.
Since collaborating with Korea to start its medical tourism strategy about 15 years ago, we have worked with the Korean government. In Korea, the corporate and public sectors collaborate to achieve a shared vision, serving as a model for the rest of the globe. Thousands of patients visit Korea every year because it is at the cutting edge of technology and treatment. With up to 80% cost savings for US medical tourists, top-notch medical care, and tour packages that integrate patient care with relaxation and wellness options, Korea is quickly emerging as one of the top locations for foreign patients, particularly those from the US.
