Medical Tourism

With insane medical expenses and lack of health insurance many U.S. citizens have to live with, the medical tourism industry is growing exponentially each year.  Overseas doctors who have fewer liabilities and expenses, and who live in countries with a much lower standard of living, are able to provide medical care at a mere fraction of the cost they would pay at home.  For many, necessary surgeries that carry low risk can be performed in these other countries.  The cost of travel included in the cost of the medical procedure is often still far less than the same U.S.-based service.

My question to readers is:  Would you consider medical tourism as a viable option to receiving health care in the U.S. if it could save you potentially thousands of dollars?
