Medical Tourism - Schadenfreude

I am watching a documentary about medical tourism.   Lots of people flying to different locales around the world for medical care because it is too expensive in the US.   Millions of people go to Thailand alone.  Its ridiculous that it is actually cheaper to fly to Thailand get your healthcare, stay for a few days and it's still CHEAPER. 

I love seeing that the doctors, nurses, hospitals are all being off-shored too.
