BPK9 International Hospital Achieves GHA Accreditation for Medical Tourism

Global Healthcare Accreditation (GHA) has launched HealthStars EXCELerator, a solution designed to accelerate innovation and maximize a business’s opportunity for success in the global healthcare space. Achieving success in medical tourism is ultimately about providing value to the patient.

Thanks to digital advancements, the first point of contact between international patients and medical travel providers is a website. Medical tourists can obtain all the essential information they require to make a medical travel decision without leaving their homes with just a click of a button. Therefore, your website forms an interface between your medical travel program and potential health payers and, as such, will likely have a strong impact on the success (or lack thereof) of your program.
