1 Strong economic strength, money is not a problem at all, then in the case of physical condition allows, as long as they want to go, can go abroad to see a doctor or physical examination, enjoy a more high-end and more professional and more humanized medical services.
2 For patients with malignant tumors who have some economic strength, it is best to consider and weigh the pros and cons before deciding whether to go abroad for medical treatment.
2.1 If the malignant tumor is in its early stages, the overall survival rate of patients is good, whether they are treated at home or abroad. In the United States, the treatment of early malignant tumors is aimed at "cure", and American doctors are very careful and patient in all examinations and treatment operations to ensure that all cancer cells are found and eliminated, and to maximize the avoidance of recurrence or metastasis in the later stages. It is not that domestic doctors are not careful, domestic doctors often see a patient in three minutes, I believe that domestic doctors are serious and responsible, but the medical environment is such that they are not allowed to spend too much time and energy on a patient. In this case, then, there is great value in spending a higher price to see a doctor abroad, because most early cancers are curable. (In medicine, a cancer that does not recur or metastasize within 5 years of treatment is considered "cured" because cancer usually recurs within 5 years of the first treatment, and if it doesn't recur within 5 years, the probability of it recurring after 5 years is low.)
2.2 If the malignant tumor is advanced, that is, the cancer has metastasized, the patient is likely to have lost the value of surgery, and cannot be controlled by chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or targeted therapy in the country, then in this case, the choice of whether or not to go abroad to see a doctor is often to be more cautious, and must not listen to the agency's side of the story. Because in this case, the patients and their families are particularly strong desire to survive, but also particularly easy to be deceived, hoping to find a special drug or a new treatment can be cured, spend more money are not willing to spare.
Compared with seeking treatment abroad, Hong Kong, with its well-established healthcare system, advanced medical standards, common language, convenient transportation, and similar living habits, is more suitable for mainland patients.
