H

Healthbase has partnered with a JCI accredited Costa Rican Hospital to bring more cost-effective and convenient choices to uninsured Americans for their health care requirements.

Boston-based medical tourism facilitator, Healthbase Online Inc., and Hospital Clinica Biblica of Costa Rica have partnered to provide low cost high quality health care services to uninsured, underinsured and even insured Americans. The expertise of Healthbase as an award-winning medical tourism operator and the 79-year experience of the JCI (Joint Commission International) accredited Costa Rican hospital at serving international patients make first-class medical care immediately accessible to Americans and Canadians at affordable prices.

According to Saroja Mohanasundaram, the CEO of Healthbase, “We are constantly looking to expand our provider network so we can offer a wider selection to our global medical consumers. As always, we like to bring aboard any hospital which has value for our customers in terms of significant cost savings and is at the same time a world-class provider of health care services so our customers can get top quality healthcare at a considerably lower price. Clinica Biblica Hospital meets both these conditions, has the infrastructure to serve foreign patients and is safe for our customers to travel to. This, together with our award-winning medical tourism website and our remarkable customer service make it very easy and convenient for medical tourists to plan and arrange their medical treatments overseas.” Healthbase’s network of health care service providers is spread in India, Singapore, Thailand, Turkey, Belgium, Hungary, Panama, Costa Rica and Mexico.

Mr. Brad Cook, the Director of International Department at Clinica Biblica Hospital says, “World-class medical care means little if unaffordable or too far away. Our hospital offers patients a wide variety of leading-edge medical procedures and treatments at affordable prices, yet is located just two and a half hours from Miami. We are very excited about partnering with Healthbase, and allowing more patients to experience the quality of care available at Clinica Biblica Hospital.”

Hospital Clinica Biblica is the first hospital in the region to be accredited by JCI. JCI accreditation assures that the care and treatment provided by Hospital Clinica Biblica is on par with top American and European hospitals.

The proximity of Costa Rica to North America makes Hospital Clinica Biblica a very suitable choice for medical conditions and surgery requiring quick access to medical care. Additionally, the exotic natural attractions in Costa Rica make medical and dental care coupled with a vacation a very attractive package.

The partnership between Healthbase and Hospital Clinica Biblica brings convenient top-notch healthcare options to the doorstep of North Americans.
