PRWEB Few would argue that the US healthcare system is sick, and physician-founded Orbicare of Miami is betting that Silicon Valley’s Health Travel Technologies (HTT) has the cure with its global patient referral application.
The partnership between Orbicare and Health Travel Technologies connects US patients with international doctors like never before, saving thousands on the cost of necessary and cosmetic medical, dental and surgical care. HTT is the creator of Inpatra, the world’s most comprehensive global patient referral and management application. HTT has signed a licensing agreement with Orbicare, a leader in international patient referral, to host its comprehensive portfolio of medical services. The partnership will provide English- and Spanish-speaking US patients and employers with high quality healthcare alternatives across Latin America and Europe, including medical and dental travel programs in Argentina, Costa Rica, Panama, Spain and Turkey. “HTT helps international healthcare networks work directly with US patients and employers to provide much needed access to affordable healthcare,” said Health Travel Technologies CEO Herb Stephens. “In addition to high quality, high value medical care, an added bonus for American patients and employers is the proximity and safety of the Orbicare healthcare network,” said Stephens. “Orbicare searched for the right partner for more than a year,” says Teresa Arenas, Chief Operations Officer for Orbicare. “We chose HTT for its comprehensive technology, unmatched experience and dedicated people. “The Inpatra international patient referral and management application provides Orbicare with the hosted business processes we need, so that we can focus our resources on our strengths: providing personalized, quality medical services to US patients and employer benefits plans, especially during this time of rapid expansion.” HTT is the largest technology and services company in the health information technology space, processing more than one million international travelers representing more than $500 million in financial transactions per year, with health travel representing double digit year-over-year growth.
