Patients Beyond Borders' editors define a medical traveler as anyone who travels across international borders for the purpose of receiving medical care. We do not
count in-country expatriates, tourists in need of emergency medical care, companions accompanying medical travelers, or multiple patient episodes that occur over
the course of one medical visit.
