No Health Insurance? Affordable heart surgery in India?

One of the hot points in the debate between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton is that about health care. However, the truth remains that 47 million Americans are uninsured and millions more deprived of the much needed healthcare waiting for the government to act. David Jones of Houston, TX had lost his health insurance after suffering from a heart attack 5 years ago and was unable to secure insurance coverage elsewhere. So when he suffered from two more heart attacks 6 months ago he needed a triple bypass surgery to keep him alive. But, the high cost of the surgery in the US - $200,000 - dissuaded him from having the surgery at his local hospital. Then he was introduced to medical tourism and that is what saved his life. Healthbase, an award-winning premium medical tourism company arranged David's low cost high quality medical treatment in India saving him $188,000. For more, visit http://www.healthbase.com.
