Reply #7: 60 Minutes did a special about surgery in Thailand and India...

and everyone who went absolutely raved about the experience. Mainly it was the uninsured facing seriously health care problems if they didn't get the surgery (heart bypass, hip replacement). Both hospitals were top of the line and probably in better condition and better staffed than most US Hospitals. Many of the docters were US trained and the patients were not forced to leave the hospital early to save costs.

I know it sounds scary but unfortunately they're doing it better overseas and in a more cost efficient way.
