no visa needed for Hainan, which is under development for medical tourism and has special regulations allowing access to cutting edge medications that are still in trial

I knew a guy here in the US on "good" health insurance with his employer, and his employer was/is the largest healthcare provider in the state (a giant teaching hospital).

he waited 6 months for an MRI of his foot including referral and consult, I am pretty sure he paid hundreds out of pocket, but the kicker was this:

it's too "expensive" to have the MRI interpreted by someone in the US, so they email it to consultants in India who do it for like 20% of what insurance might be expected to pay someone here, and then email it back with a report that the doctor uses to make a treatment plan.

the future is now.
