Medical Tourism in Costa Rica
For those who have read my blog-Costa Rica has excellent medical care and has become a destination for medical procedures because the cost is a fraction of that in the states.
I see tons of plastic surgery. Butt implants, butt lifts, lip injections, liposuction, breast implants, breast lifts, nose job, eye lifts, face lifts, and many more. They do them all in Costa Rica.
This weekend they are having an international conference to expand and improve medical tourism in Costa Rica
The meeting will bring together 450 representatives from 10 countries in the region, with the participation of insurers, investors and service providers related to the activity, both local and international.
There will be 75 stands, 750 confirmed and business appointments, conferences and visits to hospitals and medical centers, according to the Ministry for Competitiveness in a press release.
We'll see what becomes of it. I think it is a really great industry for the wonderful Ticos to expand upon!
