Medical Travel Option Benefits Businesses and Employees
Medical Travel Option has over 10 years experience as users of international medical travel and facilitation of the medical travel process. In that time we’ve developed a turn-key program and relationships with select accredited medical, dental and specialty pharmacy providers in Costa Rica and in Mexico. It is our experience that the international providers our clients use offer care comparable to the best care to be had in the United States. We have analyzed each provider’s quality and they continuously meet or beat the numbers for U.S. hospitals and clinics in outcomes and patient satisfaction. Our familiarity with their processes benefits the employers and employees we serve.
Medical Travel Option’s founder is an experienced medical traveler, specifically to Costa Rica and CIMA San José. Before Medical Travel Option was formed, Curry Willix facilitated her family’s choice to go to Costa Rica for medical and dental care. Her personal insights and expertise are invaluable in arranging medical travel and expanding the MTO network of providers for services and care that our clients want.
Big Savings for Smart Leaders and Their Companies
Working with Medical Travel Option offers every self-funded employer the opportunity to provide employees a quality alternative for medically necessary surgery, restorative dental care and specialty prescription brand medications. Our priority is offering the highest quality of care possible and a better experience than that available in the U.S. And we do it at a more affordable cost than domestic healthcare, which means savings that benefit the companies we serve. By working with us, employers can save on average up to forty percent (yes, 40%) on each medically necessary surgical claim, such as knee replacement, and as much as sixty-seven percent (that’s right, 67%) on specialty Rx medication such as Humira®. Employees can access fifty-three percent (53% amazing) savings on dental care by not putting it off any longer.
Significant cost savings and happy employees won’t go unnoticed. Employers who work with Medical Travel Option set themselves up for recognition as smart leaders.

Curry Willix, Medical Travel Option Founder
“Loved our doctor. Everything was top notch, professional, caring, available and informative. If I ever need medical care again, I will come here! My needs were met and my time here exceeded my expectations.”
“My whole perspective has changed. I received better care [in Costa Rica] than I do [in the U.S.]. I was forced to relax and heal. I’m really glad and grateful that I found you and your company–it’s fantastic.”

Happy, Healthy Employees
A healthy workforce is important to any company’s productivity. Medical Travel Option is focused on getting each employee back to work, better. When an employee experiences the start-to-finish service provided by Medical Travel Option, they are focused on being prepared for surgery and on their recovery after.
Additionally, the environment of the international destination, the staff of the international provider, the focused attention of the specialists, physical therapists and dietitians, the comfort of our partnering hotels and the courtesy of our ground transportation… all make a difference employees can’t stop talking about. Add to this any incentives offered by their employer, and the entire experience fosters goodwill that can result in greater employee satisfaction, loyalty and retention.

Medical Travel Option is an employee’s direct link to international providers with award-winning service and care.
