Oops! I inadvertently set this poll to close automatically after 48 hours. Apologies if you wanted to vote but couldn't. I've turned it back on now.

New feature at MedTripInfo

We're kicking off a new feature at MedTripInfo: polls of our visitors. These admittedly unscientific surveys should be useful conversation starters, and we hope you'll place your vote. (You don't need to register to do so.)

If you have ideas for questions you'd like to see featured, feel free to suggest them.

Safety Poll

Perhaps not yet but in the near future examining the safety choices patients make would be interesting. For example - do they think that having evacuation insurance is important?

By way of exmple:

The State dept strongly suggests that no one travel without it. To get evac out of a country can cost $100,000 or you can stay with the Tsunami or coup and tough it out.

Perhaps it's our adventuresome American spirit, but only 2% of our clients purchase medical travel insurance which includes evac . Average cost is about $100. 94% of them say they are concerned about their safety while they are overseas.

Stephanie Sulger RN, MS, CIPC

Will add that one to the list

I'll put out a poll on that topic in the near future.
