Freedom Healthnet is appearing in the inflight FlyBe magazine this month. In an article discussing The Health Tourist, FlyBe reviews how increasing numbers are going abroad for medical treatment.
Citing the fact that many people are concerned about UK hospital waiting lists, the article notes that the numbers of people visiting foreign countries for operations and treatment. With long NHS waiting lists and the cost of private healthcare going up every year, the appeal of affordable and superior treatment outside the UK is becoming increasingly attractive, the article states. The piece then goes on to point out how Freedom Health Insurance offers 'an appreciably simplistic approach to healthcare-protection plans'. It discusses how Freedom pays you money upon approval of inpatient claims and how you can then choose where to have your treatment. The FlyBe magazine article then indicates how there are no restrictions on treatment location and no limited list of hospitals, unlike other private healthcare providers. With Freedom you can have your medical treatment abroad. It indicates that often medical tourists will then have a holiday in the location of their treatment afterwards, as a way to enjoy the region and the sunshine and just relax.

The article points out the choices with Freedom Health Insurance:

• selecting to undergo treatment anywhere in the world
• seeking treatment at a private hospital in the UK as a self pay patient
• having your treatment at an NHS hospital in the UK
• the plan is sutiable for persons 18-75 years old
• current medical conditions are excluded and will be subject to underwriting (as with any policy)
