Med Access vs. Hospitals
Why Med Access? Why Not Hospitals Directly?
1. Med Access offers the choice of "carefully
selected accredited hospitals" from “all over
India on case to case basis".
1. One single hospital can offer "whatever best
it has".
2. Med Access offers the choice of carefully
selected, "Best of the Best” doctors from “All
Over India”
2. One single hospital can offer whatever best
it has. "All the Best Doctors do not work in one
Best Hospital"
3. Each case is referred to "minimum five top
most hospitals/doctors in India", multiple
opinions are obtained on each case referred to
us.
3. Option of multiple opinions is limited.
4. Consequently, the patient is offered the
simply best treatment available in India.
4. Patient receives the “best available in that
hospital
5. Med Access negotiates, offers and maintains
best prices available in India
5. There is no assurance on the cost of
treatment. There is always a tendency to hike
the costs on one pretext or the other.
6. Highly personalized services 6. Scope of personalized services is limited.
