FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 03, 2007 -
New York, NY - New Medical Horizons Inc. ( http://www.newmedicalhorizons.com/ ) is publishing a series of interviews with leading personalities in the medical tourism sector.  The latest in this series is an interview with Jonathan Edelheit - VP, United Group Programs Inc.

In response to a question about the net savings resulting from an employer sending employees abroad for treatment, Mr. Edelheit says, "An employer can see savings up to 80%, which is amazing. Reductions in employers expenses vary based upon demographics, age, gender, location, industry, etc. In reality an employer if fully implemented could see savings ranging from 10% - 50% of their health plan. And that means reduced to no rate increases in future years. Employers can actually take control of their health care costs for the first time.
