Medcasts is a global medical assistance service that helps people explore treatment options at hospitals abroad. It lists 8,584 hospitals across nine destination countries and features 449 treatments with listed prices, including knee and hip replacements, heart bypass surgery, fertility care, cancer surgery, transplants, spine surgery and hair transplants.

Patients can submit medical reports to receive three price quotes from hospitals, which Medcasts says are checked by a doctor and provided within 48 hours. Its process also includes help comparing hospitals, a free video call with a prospective surgeon, and support with visa letters, travel arrangements, airport pickup, accommodation and interpretation. The service says reports can be translated for free and that a coordinator supports patients from their first message through their return home.

Medcasts presents hospital accreditations and written, itemized quotes to help patients compare options. Patients pay hospitals directly, not Medcasts; the company says hospitals pay it a fee only after treatment. Its website is available in multiple languages and displays prices in several currencies.
