The Daily Star has highlighted the launch of My Medical Gateway (MMG), reporting on the increasing number of UK patients seeking faster and more affordable medical treatment at accredited hospitals across Europe as NHS waiting lists and private healthcare costs continue to rise.
The Daily Star has featured My Medical Gateway (MMG), the new healthcare marketplace designed to help UK patients access consultant-led treatment at accredited European hospitals.
The article focuses on the growing trend of British patients travelling overseas for medical care, citing official figures showing that more than 523,000 UK residents sought treatment abroad in 2024. Against a backdrop of NHS waiting lists exceeding 7 million treatment pathways, many patients are increasingly exploring alternative options for faster access to healthcare.
The feature highlights how MMG enables patients to compare fixed-price treatment packages from accredited hospitals across Europe through a single digital platform. Patients can review providers, compare costs and explore treatment options before selecting the hospital that best meets their needs.
The Daily Star also notes that many treatments available through MMG can be accessed within weeks and at significantly lower cost than equivalent private treatment in the UK.
Commenting on the launch, MMG explained that its objective is to make the process of arranging treatment abroad simpler, more transparent and more accessible for patients who wish to explore self-pay healthcare options beyond the UK market.
Every hospital featured on the platform is fully licensed and regulated within the European Union, with treatment packages designed to provide clear pricing and certainty for patients throughout their healthcare journey.
As demand for faster access to healthcare continues to grow, MMG believes patients should be aware that high-quality, consultant-led treatment is often available within weeks at accredited hospitals across Europe.
