According to the National Coalition on Health Care, more than 500,000 Americans went overseas for health care in 2005. Sensing a trend, BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina has contracted with Bumrungrad hospital in Thailand and World Access, a Richmond, Va.-based company, to offer a Web-based service called Companion Global Healthcare. It is essentially a one-stop shop where members can go to make overseas hospital appointments and travel arrangements.
