"As a journalist, the conference gave great insight into the medical tourism industry and gave me the
opportunity to interview doctors, facilitators and even some patients who had procedures done outside the U.S. It was a great way to make contacts and get educated about a potentially booming industry."
“I very much enjoyed the conference. This was a tremendous opportunity to really see first hand the number and type of international providers focused on the US marketplace.”
Matt Leming, Vice President, Swiss Re“We were very impressed with the conference: The number of attendees was unparalleled. Equally important, those people represented organizations of key interest to us: insurance companies, insurance consultants/brokers, TPAs, etc. Finally, because this conference was dedicated to the industry: the energy level was incredible and everybody reached out to each other to network and learn more of the latest developments. Congrats Medical Tourism Association for putting this excellent conference together and thereby help move our industry forward.”
Wouter Hoeberechts, CEO, WorldMed Assist“I have yet to attend another Medical Tourism Conference which has brought together so many like minded people who were looking for answers as to where to go or where to send their patients and who to link up with. The formal and informal dinners and cocktails were also fabulous for so many of us to get to know each other. The highlight was the Gala Dinner. “
Dato Jacob Thomas, President, Private Hospital Association of Malaysia“Patients Without Borders used the Medical Tourism Congress in 2008 to officially launch our branding campaign. Our sponsorship and booth presence were invaluable in terms of increasing awareness of our premium brand as well as making key business contacts, most of whom we are still working with closely.”
Jeff Carter, CEO, Patients Without Border"World Medical Tourism Congress was the largest and the most valuable conference I have ever been. We could feel the wind of change in the US healthcare market. I believe we provided health insurance companies and the self insured with the clear message that Korea is the right partner to work with."
