Your Health - Your Choice

caduceus (kədyū'sēəs), wing-topped staff, with two snakes winding about it, carried by Hermes, given to him (according to one legend) by Apollo. The symbol of two intertwined snakes appeared early in Babylonia and is related to other serpent symbols of fertility, wisdom, and healing. The caduceus is much used as a symbol has largely replaced the one-snake symbol of Asclepius as a symbol of medicine.

At Caduceus Worldwide, we have taken a three pronged approach to helping people in the United States deal with the high cost of health care.  First we offer a Health & Lifestyle discount card.  While this is not health insurance, the savings are significant and can help people without insurance, compliment insurance plans that people have or provide savings when insurance does not cover a procedure, service or prescription.

 

Secondly, with our partner WorldMed Assist, Caduceus Worldwide arranges facilitation of  travel for people to providers in other countries.  From door to door, our complete service will save you money and provide the excitement of travel to amazing locations.

 

And last, but not least, Caduceus Worldwide works with employers and brokers to implement medical and dental travel into employer sponsored health plans.  This provides savings for employees and choice of high quality care while giving employers a way to hold down the increased costs of providing health insurance for their employees and increasing employee satisfaction.

Medical travel and tourism involves traveling to a foreign country for a medical procedure. As more people seek faster or cheaper alternatives

to healthcare, medical travel & tourism continues to grow.

Occasionally, the medical procedure needed is urgent, but more patients are using medical travel & tourism for cosmetic surgery, dental

and for procedures not covered by their insurance plan.
