Jakarta, Indonesia – August 29, 2016 /PressCable/ —

“A Most Beautiful You” has released a potentially controversial article “Medical Tourism On The Rise-Philippines Medical Tourism Overview “, bringing some cause for concern, as the article may upset some in the U.S. Healthcare industry. “The emergence of medical tourism may put pressure on US health-care providers to reduce prices may force greater transparency in pricing and surgical outcome and even an upgrade to more efficient healthcare delivery methods” – p 55, Medical Tourism: The Ethics, Regulation, and Marketing of Health Mobility By Colin Michael Hall.

The article is 692 words in length and examines the high points and low points of Medical Tourism, in the pursuit of providing reliable insider information and analysis of the quality of medical care abroad, specifically in The Philippine Islands. This article aims to give a first hand perspective of quality of care for those considering Medical Tourism as a viable option to treatment stateside for Cosmetic Surgery/Cosmetic Dentistry candidates and prospects. Causing controversy is not typical for the site. The intent is to give information and allow the reader an opportunity to arrive at their own conclusion from information presented by a subject matter expert, in a concise and logical manner, though a certain element of the article is set to spark discontent among American Plastic Surgeons.

Below is a portion of the piece, which neatly exemplifies the controversial element:

Cost, needless to say, has always been a major detail and necessary consideration along with lots of other things for the potential patient … it is after all a problem, universally …http://amostbeautifulyou.com/home/medical-tourism/

Dr. Edwin Paul Magallona is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon practicing in Metro Manila, Philippines: – “Of course, the article does not set out to intentionally upset anybody. The aim of the articles is, first and foremost, to present the up and coming Medical Tourism Industry, specifically Cosmetic Surgery in The Philippine Islands, in a favorable light. The ultimate aim of the article is to show how the Philippine Medical Tourism Program has turned The Philippine Islands into a premier spot for wellness and medical care in Asia.

Although our “Medical Tourism On The Rise-Philippines Medical Tourism Overview ” might unsettle some, as “the emergence of medical tourism may put pressure on U.S. health-care providers to reduce prices may force greater transparency in pricing and surgical outcome and even an upgrade to more efficient healthcare delivery methods”[- p 55, Medical Tourism: The Ethics, Regulation, and Marketing of Health Mobility By Colin Michael Hall], our duty is to our readers. It is more important, in the interest of openness and fairness, to present information offering options for the consumer, than to please everyone, which is notoriously difficult to do.”

Although there has been no backlash as of yet, the possibility exists the article might upset some, because the U.S. Healthcare market is more concerned about shareholder profits and “Net Bottom Line”, above providing the best quality product at the best price to the consumer.

“A Most Beautiful You” has been a provider of in depth articles in the Cosmetic Surgery market for this site and has just recently started publishing articles for Medical Tourism.

“A Most Beautiful You” has stated the future aims for the website are to present the consumer with alternatives, via a directory of destinations and doctors available in Asia, who have the ability to provide prospective candidates with a comparable product or service, at a more reasonable price. So “A Most Beautiful You” hopes any controversy will pass quickly and re-emphasizes no offence is or was intended.
