A recent case study by doctors at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York examined the ethical issues posed by transplant tourism, an offshoot of medical tourism, which focuses solely on transplantation surgery.

Many American transplant professionals frown on the practice of transplant tourism where patients travel to countries such as China, India, and the Philippines for their transplantation.

These transplant tourists may be subject to sub-standard surgical techniques, poor organ matching, unhealthy donors, and post transplant infections, prompting U.S. health care institutions to refuse treatment of these patients upon return to the U.S. Medical associations have responded with transplant tourism policies and guidelines to advise clinicians on the ethics of caring for transplant tourists.

Full details of the study appear in the February issue of Liver Transplantation, a journal published by Wiley-Blackwell on behalf of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD). Some might think of transplant or medical tourism as merely a fictional plot from one of Robin Cook’s medical thriller books (Foreign Body).

However, given the critical shortage of available organs in the U.S., transplant tourism has grown in popularity among patients awaiting transplantation. Currently, the United Network of Organ Sharing (UNOS) reports there are more than 105,000 Americans on the transplant candidate waiting list with more than 15,000 patients awaiting a liver transplant. Furthermore, UNOS data shows a decline in donorship with living donor numbers decreasing by 1.7% and deceased donors down by 1.2% in 2008.

In the current case, a 46-year-old Chinese accountant (HQ) was placed on the UNOS transplant registry with a Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score of 18 that increased to 21 while on the candidate waitlist for over a year (MELD scores range from 6 for those least ill through 40 for those most sick).

HQ then traveled to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and was transplanted two weeks after arrival. After transplantation, HQ returned to the Mount Sinai program requesting follow-up care, which was provided. HQ then developed biliary sepsis requiring hospitalization and re-transplantation seemed to be the only viable option.

“While the patient was a medically suitable candidate, team members disagreed if it were indeed, morally right to provide him with a transplant,” said Thomas Schiano, M.D., one of the case clinicians and lead author of this study.

Ultimately, the transplant team proceeded with a liver transplant for HQ and he is currently doing well. “Our consensus to transplant was based on the relevant principles of medical ethics—non-judgmental regard, beneficence, and fiduciary responsibility,” added Dr. Schiano.

The study authors estimate that more than 400 patients received transplants abroad with 75% of those taking place between 2004 and 2006.

Of those transplant tourists, 40% reside in New York and California, and the majority these patients traveled to the PRC, where organs from executed prisoners have been used in transplantations.

Although transplant tourism is not held in high regard, the practice violates neither current U.S. law nor the National Organ Transplant Act. Current UNOS policies allow a small percentage of each center’s transplants to be allotted for foreign nationals, essentially allowing for transplant tourism within the U.S.

Over the last few years, professional associations have established transplant tourism policies to provide guidance to clinicians and uphold the principles of medical ethics.

The AASLD and International Liver Transplant Society (ILTS) have positions against the exploitation of donors, the recovery of organs from executed prisoners, and condemned the use of paid living donors. Similarly, the American Society of Transplantation declares that optimal medical care should not be withheld from those recipients who have chosen to receive transplants as “tourists” from abroad.

“Unfortunately, little guidance from societal statements are provided to transplant centers and the professionals in the trenches dealing with transplant tourists seeking care,” Dr. Schiano stated. Given the shortage of available organs, more patients may resort to transplant tourism as an option.

“Although we do not condone all of the practices associated with transplant tourism, it is our duty to provide all transplant patients with the same compassionate care and support, whether their transplantation was performed in the U.S. or abroad,” concluded Dr. Schiano.

To build awareness of the need for organ donors, February 14, 2010 is designated as National Donor Day in the U.S. The Department of Health and Human Services provides further information on National Donor Day.

RIYADH – Health tourism accounted for over SR800 million out of the total spending by both citizens and expatriates for domestic tourism in 2007, a recent report from the Supreme Plugins 2Commission for Tourism and Antiquities (SCTA) said.

At the same time, foreign tourists spent over SR400 million to undergo treatment in the Kingdom during the period, said the report. Medical tourism is a combination of wellness and health care coupled with leisure and relaxation, which is aimed at rejuvenating a person mentally, physically and emotionally by removing him fromm his daily routine to a relaxed environment in an exotic location, Gulf News reported Friday.

The SCTA report showed that there are several medical firms and centers to promote medical tourism in the main cities of the Kingdom. These include Prince Sultan City for Humanitarian Services, Dr. Sulaiman Al-Habeeb Center, Kingdom Hospital, Dallah Hospital, Ibn Rushd Hospital, Saudi German Hospital, Qari Medical Center for Blood Diseases and Tumors, Dr Abdul Rahman Baksh Hospitals, and Eid Clinic.

There are several other clinics springing up in various regions of the Kingdom. Abdul Rahman Al-Jassas, SCTA’s executive director for tourism development in the Riyadh region, said that Saudi Arabia is also making giant strides in business and conference tourism.

“Riyadh hosted more than 50 percent of these types of tourism activities Kingdom-wide during the last year,” he said. He attributed this to the quality of the infrastructure facilities in Riyadh for hosting such events, such as large conference halls and exhibition venues.

Al-Jassas said that Riyadh will witness the opening of a number of hotels over the next two years, thus increasing the capacity to accommodate more tourists.

“There will be more participation by the younger generation, especially students and volunteers in event management in Riyadh in future. This will be a big boost for developing their qualities for voluntary work and service to society,” he said.

In another development, SCTA and the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice signed a cooperation agreement for the development of domestic tourism. Under the agreement, both organizations will increase cooperation.

SEOUL, Jan. 22 (Xinhua) — Park Sook-ja, a 66-year-old South Korean who has lived in the suburbs of New York for 37 years, has always felt insecure when it came to annual medical check-ups at year’s end.

“A simple medical check-up here in the United States is not only terribly expensive but also the service itself isn’t really convenient,” Park said.

It was not until last year that Park realized another option for health screening was available for her in the motherland, when she came across a newspaper advertisement about South Korea’s medical tour packages.

“I sort of remembered hearing about it from people in Los Angeles, but I had no idea it would be that good until actually taking part in the tour package,” Park said. “The South Korean government should push harder for the expansion of the industry,” she added.

Estimated to grow into a 10 billion U.S. dollar industry by 2012, according to consulting firm McKinsey & Company, global medical tourism is quickly becoming a potential gold mine for countries with advanced medical services, and the South Korean government is jump starting its efforts to tap into this lucrative market as well.

Medical tourism is basically regarded as the whole process of traveling abroad in order to get medical care, be it a regular check-up, cosmetic surgery, breast implants, or dental work.

In fact, South Korea lately has been seeing a burgeoning market in its health tourism industry, prompted by the government’s new law last year permitting domestic hospitals to serve foreigners with less restriction, causing a slew of new services and related groups to emerge.

For example, the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul has launched the “International CEO Health Program” last week, a luxury medical check-up program designed for high-end customers from overseas markets, while the Jaseng Hospital of Oriental Medicine recently opened a totally separate building only to serve foreign visitors.

Hospitals in Seoul’s posh Gangnam area have also initiated a medical tour association aimed at promoting its high-end services through overseas road shows and participation of medical conferences abroad.
