About Satori World Medical

With the rising cost of health care within the United States quite apparent, Satori® World Medical offers people an alternative approach to arranging medical treatment. The company, headquartered in San Diego, California, and led by President and CEO Steven Lash, relies on a global network of hospitals to help reduce the cost of health care for individuals, insurers, employers, and financial sponsors. Through its Quality Assurance Program™, Satori World Medical seeks out the finest facilities around the world to minimize the economic burden on patients. The network offers medical services in Thailand, India, Costa Rica, Mexico, Singapore, Canada, and several other countries. With its approach, the company continues to serve as a leader in the globalization of health care. As medical and technological improvements are made throughout the world, many countries can offer advanced medical care without an inflated price. Satori World Medical takes advantage of this reality through its Health & Shared Wealth Program™. The company boasts a savings of 40-80% on surgical procedures compared to traditional domestic options. The cost includes airfare, hospital and physician fees, hotel accommodations, foreign ground transportation, and a personal accident insurance policy for the patient and a companion. Employers can share these savings with their employee (the patient) through options such as depositing a portion of the savings into a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) or providing meal per diems while the patient is traveling for surgery. Utilizing an HRA allows for reimbursement to an employee for qualified medical expenses and can be compatible with a qualified Health Savings Account or other model. In addition to cost savings, Satori World Medical strives to provide comprehensive customer service. Through the use of technology and highly trained staff, the firm offers patients an uncomplicated route for scheduling and receiving treatment. After a patient registers via its website or calls, a Nurse Patient Advocate from Satori will make contact to discuss the entire medical treatment process. Next, a Travel Care Coordinator will arrange all logistics of travel and the procedure. Once the date has arrived, patients will be greeted at the airport, escorted to the hotel, and checked in to the hospital the following day. Finally, once the procedure is completed and travel is authorized, patients will return home and consult with their local physician.

The International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans (IFEBP) is a non-profit organization that is committed to being an independent global source of employee benefits, compensation, and financial literacy education and information. It also delivers education, research and information, and networking opportunities to numerous benefits and compensation available. That is why employees and employers have also come to rely on the foundation for objective, accurate, and timely information.

Satori World Medical has rightfully associated with IFEBP, mainly an employment benefit plan, making it easier to provide cost-efficient and superior overseas surgical care to more Americans.

The emergence of incorporating medical tourism packages to employee benefit plans in the recent years is largely due to the inefficient US healthcare system that has become much more reliant on private funding. Through employee benefit plans, thousands of dollars may be saved respective of procedure. This partnership between Satori and IFEBP aims to bring the benefits of medical tourism to a larger audience—providing people with healthcare that is justly due them.
