14 Feature Raffles HealthNews Local resources 4 Should you fall sick overseas, you can contact your embassy or consulate office in the country for help. The embassy can help find trusted medical facilities and doctors for your condition. They can help you contact your family and friends back at home to update them on your situation. If necessary, the staff may even help you with the transferring of funds for your medical bills. Medical facilities just across the street to one another may present with varying levels of care. You can always approach your embassy for help or better still, if your insurer provides a critical care hotline, you can go directly to pre-inspected facilities with trusted standards. Locating a safe and trusted hospital is one part of the story. You may wish to add language proficiency in English to your doctor search criteria. At the very least, you should ask for a translator to accompany you on your consultation. 5 Time versus Cost Don’t shy away from seeking medical treatment in foreign countries. When it comes to medical emergencies, time is essence and prompt medical treatment can help fix potential future repercussions. Moreover, the local doctor or pharmacist will be familiar with local maladies, and be happy to set you up with inexpensive prescriptions to manage your condition. Should your health condition turns serious and you have opted for a travel insurance with medical evacuation, choose to evacuate to the nearest established medical hub for medical care as soon as possible. The cost of a medical evacuation may be high but the value of getting the right treatment early on can become the critical factor in the final outcome. As more people are travelling these days for both business and leisure, getting sick overseas is no longer something we only read about. With these tips at hand, you can enjoy your next trip without having to worry because you will be prepared for the worst case scenario. HN
