New Healthcare Service Offers Travelers Priority Access to Top Doctors Anywhere Around the Globe
Private Health Worldwide Emergency Assistance Gives 24/7/365 Access to Best Medical Care Even in Remote Locales
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - December 17, 2009) - Whether rafting on the Amazon, hiking in
the Himalayas or hitting the slopes in St. Moritz, sophisticated
travelers know that life can be unpredictable, especially when it comes
to their health. In response, medical care provider Private Health Management offers
reassurance to travelers by giving them priority access to the best
physicians, surgeons and medical facilities in the world whenever and
wherever they need it.
"When traveling for business or pleasure, there's always an element of the
unknown," said Leslie D.
Michelson, Private Health's chairman and CEO. "With Private Health, the
moment you find yourself in a medical '9-1-1' situation, you're one call
away from a Personal Care Team that will immediately arrange access to the
nearest top-rated doctor or facility wherever you are, from big cities to
remote locales."
For travelers, Private Health is able to provide the best care available in
180 countries. With just one phone call, Private Health can activate
emergency services provided by 4,000 carefully selected, Western-trained
physicians at 800 hospitals worldwide. When necessary, a Personal Care Team
can instantly mobilize medical evacuation
services that include state-of-the-art mobile intensive care units that
rapidly transport clients to major medical centers.
"When it comes to immediate and comprehensive care, our extensive knowledge
of the medical industry and our selection of renowned physicians
demonstrate that we know the difference between 'good' care and 'excellent'
care -- and that's an advantage our patients benefit from every day," said
Michelson.
Private Health prides itself in offering an unprecedented level of
excellence in individual patient care -- above and beyond "concierge"
practices. Private Health primary care doctors manage no more than 150
patients versus the 2,000-4,000 seen by the average physician. Every
patient's medical plan is overseen by an Expert Advisory Board of
world-class specialists and a Personal Care Team that includes a lead
physician, medical researchers, patient educators, care coordinators and
other experts.
