Helping with Medical Costs - Samaritan Healthcare Ministries Publishes Article about NC Man's Surgery in Costa Rica
Press release by Richard Jordan, PR Coordinator for NC Medical Travel

Clemmons, NC, Feb 4 2015 -- In December 2014, Samaritan member Richard Jordan decided to have a major surgery performed in Costa Rica. In January, his medical bills were processed and approved as publishable by Samaritan Ministries Christian Healthcare Newsletter. In February, an article has been released in both print and online written by Jed Stuber.

Richard had his PCNL surgery at UNIBE Hospital in Costa Rica performed by Dr. Lopez and his team . In the U.S., he could have expected a bill of around $38,000. His Costa Rican bill (including flights, recovery center stay, meals and lodging for 5 nights, and fees) was $12,000.  Just as important, if not more so, he feels the quality of the healthcare was excellent (and he sacrificed nothing except time and "leg-work").

Richard's experience may be able to offer an option that many Americans have not considered. He feels very grateful for the experience. As a staff member of NC Medical Travel himself, he was already confident in Costa Rican healthcare and UNIBE. He had not expected the personal involvement, however.
