  Medical Tourism Costa Rica

Costa Rica is well known around the world as a premier eco-tourism destination. Its stunning scenery, ideal climate and friendly locals have been luring travelers from across the globe intent on discovering its wealth of natural treasures. With all the focus on Costa Rica’s natural attractions, many people are not aware that the country is also a top destination for a growing number of foreigners looking for quality health care at rock bottom prices.

Costa Rita has been actively involved with dental tourism, and US insurers have begun contracting with dentists there. Costa Rica has also recently entered the broader medical tourism market. In comparison to US health costs, medical tourism patients can save up to 80 percent on health costs in Costa Rica. Recently, Clinica   Biblica became the country's first JCI-accredited hospital. The close proximity to the United States and Canada and a significant English speaking presence make Costa Rica a growing destination for medical travel.

Costa Rica is one of the world's premier destinations for ecotourism due to its miles of pristine rainforests, but Costa Rica also has one of the best health care systems in Latin America, drawing a large medical tourism crowd as well. Costa Rica's medical system is actually rated better than the United States' by the World Health Organization.

The country boasts highly-competent specialists in plastic surgery and dentistry, which are two areas of treatment most in demand. With additional recent medical advancements, heart, kidney and liver transplants are now offered, as is bone marrow transplantation. The World Health Organization gives high marks to the quality of medical care in Costa Rica.
