We have a solution designed just for you…!
PARADIGM healthcare makes it possible for Employers to achieve Significant Savings on major healthcare expenses while providing High Quality care to their employees and family members. Our Plan ensures reduced premiums and reduced overall healthcare costs for the Employer.

The following example will help you understand the magnitude of potential savings:
The Average Cost of a Knee Replacement Surgery in US is about 50000 Dollars. The same surgery in India at one of our top network facilities that is JCI/JCAHO/ISO/ISQua/NABH accredited is about 9000 Dollars. The total would not come to more than 15000 Dollars even if we include all the associated costs like anesthesiologist fees, operating theater, prosthesis, physical therapy, stay in a private room, surgeon's follow-up visits, nursing care, meals, supplies, medications, travel expenses (for the patient and someone accompanying them), taxi fares, transfers, hotel stay (in a 4-5 Star Hotel), a small tourist outing, etc… This calculates to a savings of $35,000.00 (i.e. a 70% savings in cost), leaving a considerable amount of surplus cash with the Employer which can be used to offer some incentive to the healthcare recipient…

Overseas Medical treatment can be a win-win situation for both, the company and its employees. It can save money for both. If presented in the right manner with the facts about the high quality of the medical care available and potential savings, majority of the employees should consider it.

A Medical Travel Option Plan in itself is an incentive, as the employee gets to enjoy an international vacation that he otherwise cannot afford. However, the effective way to get the employee interested is by educating him on the cost benefits for him & providing additional incentives. You can offer the following incentives to the employees:

  • Waive the deductible
  • Waive the co-pay
  • Offer them the opportunity to take a companion along on their medical retreat
  • Allow an extended vacation in the destination or home country for recuperation
  • Offer a cash incentive to the employees to encourage them to receive their treatment abroad

We can help you reduce your Healthcare costs substantially (by almost 70%). Contact us to know more.



Benefits for insurance companies:


Medical tourism is an option that has the potential to save millions of healthcare dollars for the Health Insurance Companies. Insurance companies can save thousands of dollars on an individual case, even with transportation, recovery and treatment costs factored into the overall price, if patients elect to receive their medical / dental treatment abroad. Most insurance companies can make an amendment to the insurance contract to allow medical tourism coverage. Partnering with a medical tourism facilitator who specializes in a certain destination is a key contributing factor to success.

Medical Tourism empowers the Insurance Companies, TPAs, PPOs, HMOs, Cost Containment Companies and Insurance Brokers to offer a high quality product with extremely affordable health premiums to their clients.

Benefits for the un-insured/under-insured patients -
IRS Qualified Medical Expenses and HSA, FSA& 401(k):


For uninsured patients (many of whom are self-employed), under-insured patients (those facing high deductibles or limited physician choices or needing treatment for procedures not covered by their insurance plans) and patients seeking out elective procedures it is a smarter choice to receive treatment in India rather than withdrawing from their precious 401(k).

Even for the insured the out-of-pocket expenses for a surgery in India are much less than what they are in USA.


Also, with consumer driven health plans (CDHPs), patients are afforded the ability to use their Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to obtain value-based, high quality care at prudent shopper prices. The patients can also claim tax deduction on all the IRS Qualified Medical Expenses (see IRS Code Section 213 d). Qualified expenses generally include- the cost of treatment, transportation expenses (including air, train, boat or car travel) and lodging and in-treatment meals. Though, it is imperative that your expenses must be directly related to your treatment. For more information visit the IRS website.
