PlacidMobile is based on popular PlacidWay.com medical tourism portal which was originally launched in November 2014. PlacidWay has seen a significant growth over the years and a shift toward mobile users versus desktop/laptop users. According to Pew Research Center, cell phone ownership among American adults aged 18 and older reached 90% in 2014, up from 53% in 2000. This number is expected to surpass 100% worldwide in 2015 as the number of mobile devices surpasses the total population. Now, PlacidWay has nearly 40% of the traffic coming from mobile users, mostly from individuals over 50+ years old - baby boomers who are the real consumer of healthcare services.

Healthcare consumers may now benefit from PlacidMobile 2.0 as it has a newer user interface which complies with the latest mobile apps design. Users can now search for medical options in over 40 countries accessing over 1000 medical centers. Medical travelers can also compare thousands of packages as well as pricing options for different procedures from medical centers all over the globe.

The medical tourism app also provides live customer support chat to help consumers with their questions or concerns. Through the mobile app, patients and consumers can also interact with their family and friends by sharing information about medical centers, packages and pricing details. Getting a FREE quote may now be easier, as this may also be provided with the upgraded mobile app.

“Mobile applications offer a huge potential to deliver effective, inexpensive (sometimes FREE), simplified, and customized solutions to consumer and professionals, especially in healthcare. This is also the reason why PlacidWay is launching a FREE add-on service for our customers because we aim to build sustainable medical tourism solutions,” Mr. Goel concludes.
