The 3rd annual World Medical Tourism & Global Healthcare Congress, www.medicaltourismcongress.com, is less than two months away and it’s time to explain the great return on investment this conference offers. Through the past few weeks, we have spoken about our networking meetings, our educational workshops and our world-class speakers and now we will focus on how this conference offers an incredible amount of savings to all attendees through the concept of ROI.
With this congress, it is tangible to achieve in three days what could take you up to three years to accomplish. We bring in attendees from over sixty countries and attendees can have up to 50 meetings at the conference over a three day period. The cost of attending the Congress is $2,500. If you look at the value of attending the conference and have meetings in one place over a three day period versus flying to up to 50 different cities around the world to schedule the same meetings with insurance companies, employers and facilitators you are looking at a big difference in cost. This latter example could cost you approximately $3,000-$5,000 per meeting (including airfare, hotel and out of office time), which multiplied by fifty meetings can range from $150,000 USD to $200,000 USD. Even if you have only ten meetings, the value of that would be between $30,000 and $50,000. It is clear that the savings are tremendous and it not only makes logical sense to attend this conference over any other event this year, but the obvious benefits are laid out in simple terms with simple math that anyone can understand. The ROI is there and is tremendous.
Harvard Business Review Analytic Services found that of the 2300 readers polled, 95% believe that face-to-face meetings are the key to success in building long-term relationships and 89% agreed face-to-face meetings are essential to sealing the deal. It is important to remember you need “face time” with potential clients. You can’t grow your business without developing in person meetings and developing those personal relationships which will lead to years of successful business.
The World Medical Tourism and Global Healthcare Congress includes two additional conferences which are the Expatriate Healthcare, Travel Insurance and Global Health Insurance Conference, http://www.expatriateconference.com and the Sustainable Healthcare and Hospital Development Conference, http://www.healthcaredevelopmentconference.com . Speakers listed above are from all three conferences.
The Medical Tourism Association™ (Global Healthcare Association) is the international non-profit trade association for the medical tourism and global healthcare industry made up of the top international hospitals, healthcare providers, medical travel facilitators, insurance companies, and other affiliated companies and members with the common goal of promoting the highest level of quality of healthcare to patients in a global environment. http://www.medicaltourismassociation.com.
