Remoteness Risks

When quality medical treatment can not be found locally, travelers may need to be transported to a higher level of care. In some destinations, geographic location and transportation limitations can make evacuation more difficult. The MEDEX 360°^m International Healthcare Rating System details evacuation methods, estimated transport times and resource limitations – all of which factor into the Remoteness Risks ratings.

MEDEX 360°^m Country Health Ratings assess medical conditions in a specific country. The rating listings are a sample of what is available within MEDEX 360°^m and are not specific to any particular destination within a listed country. Larger cities may have better care than remote areas of the same country. This discrepancy may affect a country’s overall rating. A country may also have inconsistent levels of care throughout the country, but certain facilities may provide excellent care. Further detail about specific cities is available in the full MEDEX 360°^m country information. Please contact MEDEX for a complete demonstration of this website.
