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.

Satori World Medical: More than just affordability



With the prices of medical care in the United States rising yearly, Satori World Medical believes that due to more affordable healthcare services outside the United States, medical travel is on the rise. For example, dental implants that cost around $4,000 in the US are only $1,200 dollars in Puerto Rico, and a coronary bypass surgery that costs almost $80,000 in the US is only $10,000 in India.

But even though affordability is the primary reason for medical travel, the following are some factors as to why people choose to have their procedures done abroad:

Medical travelers experience the highest quality healthcare services. Most hospitals in some countries are even better suited to do certain procedures. For example, according to Steven Lash CEO of Satori, Mexican hospitals are more experienced in performing weight-loss surgeries because Mexico has worse obesity problems than the US.

Satori World Medical’s program exceeds published AMA guidelines on medical travel.


Medical travel is never boring. Instead of recuperating in a sterile, boring hospital room and eating bland hospital food, individuals who opt for medical travel can stay at a comfortable hotel room, roam the busy streets of a foreign country, and eat real, tasty food.
