Background:
The population of Arab countries is 245 million, made of 18 countries which use one language, Arabic. Every year, thousands of affluent Arab patients arrive to foreign clinics and hospitals for special medical procedures.

Foreign Patient Revenue Data:
.

		Every year, about 350,000 foreign patients come for outpatient treatments and consultations at international private clinics and hospitals. If your practice have not been attracting Arab patients, now you are able to do so at a nominal fee! .
		.
		Average fee for foreign patients, who usually come for much more serious problems, is $20,000 to $30,000/patient. Typically, Arab patients will pay for all services (sometimes in cash) before leaving the hospital. .
		.
		In 1997, about 60,000 foreign patients were admitted to American hospitals, a 50 percent increase from five years ago. In Europe, those figures are much higher! .
		.
		Many countries, such as USA, Europe ... etc., have observing a considerable increase in Arab patients seeking treatment abroad. For example, Johns Hopkins increased its foreign patients twelve fold in two years, to 7,200 patients. In fact, Hopkins revenue from foreign patients is $200 million and 49% of foreign patients are from the Middle East (Hopkins News 97). .
		.
		Cleveland Clinic attracted 5,000 foreign patients in 1997, compared with 3,000 five years ago. .
		.
		Mayo Clinic share was 10,000 foreign patients in 1997, an 11 percent increase. ..
		.
		Affluent Arab patients are always interested in finding qualified specialists at vacation spots. Also, vacation areas are attractive to offer Arab patients complete annual physical exams. .
		.

.
Arab patients will pay for all treatment when rendered. In fact, Arab patients are known to pay large deposits toward their treatments. 

“I got a wire for $75,000 for a deposit... The patient isn't even here" said Regina Grisales, International Patient Coordinator, Tampa General Hospital (see “Arab Market Research information”.
