- According to the World Health Organization, Singapore ranks sixth worldwide in health system performance. Compare this with the United States (37th), Canada (30th) and other medical tourism destinations such as Thailand (47th), Mexico (61st), and India (112th).
- The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO), based in the US and the largest reviewer of healthcare organizations worldwide, surveyed some 20,000 programs through an accreditation process. The international arm of the organization (JCI) placed 11 Singapore hospitals on its accredited list – more than all other accredited Asian nations’ hospitals combined. ChoiceMed works with 4 of these 11 accredited hospitals.
