I find it interesting (as a Canadian) that this trend has been politicized and according to Mr. L., in my interpretation anyway, the whole reason for the medical tourism trend is apparently in reaction to Obama’s health care reforms. I think the trend began when corporate entities controlling the American health care system made things so cost-prohibitive that it made sense financially to go to another country to have procedures carried out… to state the obvious. It certainly has nothing to do with the health care reform and it only makes sense that insurers capture that market, rather than have (heaven forbid) people without insurance (meaning, people not paying insurance premiums) paying their own way.
