NEW YORK, N.Y., June 28, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Some self-insured employees are now receiving bonus from their employer when the employee elects to travel-for-treatment within the United States. New World's President and Chief Executive Officer, Cathy Nenninger, used an example of hip replacement surgery to demonstrate the impact of the program, "An employee who needs surgery and is required to pay $2,500 out-of-pocket for a deductible or co-pay, for instance, can now receive a sizable bonus depending upon the savings the company will enjoy just by electing to travel to a quality U.S. facility with board-certified physicians. New World arranges all details for the concierge experience and the employer pays just a fraction of what they would have otherwise paid to the area medical facility."
Ms. Nenninger continued with the impact to the employer, "In this same example, the employer might have paid roughly $62,000 for a procedure locally, if the employee elects to travel, would pay $28,000 in the New World One Price Healthcare® model, which is a platform all-inclusive of travel, procedure, surgeons fees, overnight hospital stay if required, recovery and meals. Since the savings is substantial, employers have been enthusiastic to share the savings back with the employee to compensate them for going out of their way to save the company money."
New World Medical Tourism LLC (New World), is run by experienced healthcare and insurance professionals and caters to the self-insured marketplace - TPAs, companies, municipalities, and unions - with its one-cost, all-inclusive approach to non-emergent medical procedures and surgeries called "One Price Healthcare®." New World is also known by its trademarked tagline "Great Care. Less Cost. New World." New World consists of quality, accredited medical facilities within the United States as well as Costa Rica, often saving organizations an average of 50% off U.S. costs. The program attaches to an existing health plan, achieved with a simple amendment to the plan document; there is no need for Open Enrollment and the program can be implemented at any time. New World can be reached at 800-475-PATIENT (7284) or by visiting NewPatient.net.
