· The international institutions are selected and their care monitored to ensure that their quality of care, safety and success record is at least as good or better than in U.S. hospitals overall. All our hospital partners are U.S. Joint Commission International (JCI) and/or ISO 9001 certified.

· The complete package of services and arrangements includes air travel; ground transportation; the medical procedure itself; luxurious stay inside and outside the hospital; meals tailored to guests’ preferences; optional visits to, and stay in, tourist attractions during recuperation; pre and post operative follow-up; and personalized attention and guidance every step of the way. Some illustrative packages and cost comparisons are shown here.

· Outcomes information and evaluations of all U.S. patients sent abroad through SAAGII are maintained by a reputed third party. All this information as permitted by the patients (including feedback and ratings, good or bad) is made available to all future prospective patients. This unprecedented transparency goes beyond anything available in U.S. hospitals. It allows patients to make their decisions with confidence, and makes future business dependent on patient’s feedback. It gives SAAGII and our partner international hospitals every incentive to give our customers the best possible experience.

· SAAGII encourages pre-surgery consultation and post-operative follow up with U.S. based doctors. SAAGII assists patients requesting help in linking up with qualified U.S. based doctors for this purpose.
