MCAN Health

What MCAN Health does

MCAN Health is a medical tourism facilitator founded in 2015 and headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey, with a regional office in London (MCAN Health London LTD). The company acts as an intermediary between international patients and a network of contracted, medical-tourism-accredited hospitals and clinics (including Alana, Turkiye Hastanesi, Istanbul Cerrahi, and FERMAD), coordinating cosmetic and medical procedures for patients traveling primarily from the UK, EU, US, and other international markets. Service offerings span four categories: hair transplant (FUE, DHI, Sapphire, Afro, Beard, and others), plastic surgery (breast, body, and facial procedures), weight loss/bariatric surgery (Gastric Sleeve, Gastric Bypass), and cosmetic dentistry (operated under the MCANDental sub-brand). The company is not a technology vendor; its core capability is logistics coordination, package assembly, and patient care rather than proprietary software or hardware.

MCAN packages its services as all-inclusive bundles that combine the surgical procedure with accommodation, airport/hotel/clinic transfers, multilingual patient coordination, and a tiered aftercare program. The aftercare stack is branded as MCANCare™ (nurse-led in-person recovery), MCANFollow™ (one-year digital follow-up), MCANAssurance™ (complication and revision coverage launched December 2025), and MCAN Touch-Up™ (shared-cost aesthetic refinement launched March 2026). The company holds TEMOS International accreditation, Turkish Ministry of Health authorization, and TURSAB membership (license 10771), and markets through a multilingual website in eight languages plus an omnichannel social presence (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Pinterest, Quora) and earned media coverage in outlets including USA Today, Daily Mail, Yahoo Finance, and WWD.

Revenue is generated through facilitation fees on package pricing, with patients paying deposits to confirm bookings and balances prior to consultation. The company has served 50,000+ patients over its 13+ year history, reporting a 4.8/5 Trustpilot rating across 1,661 reviews and an internal NPS of 8.8. Pricing leverages Turkey's structural cost advantage — for example, hair transplant packages at $2,200-$4,500 versus $8,000-$18,000+ in the US — though this cost differential is available to all Turkish facilitators rather than being proprietary to MCAN.

Revenue model

1. Medical Tourism Facilitation Packages: MCAN Health generates revenue by organizing and facilitating medical procedures for international patients in Turkey. Revenue is collected through all-inclusive treatment packages that bundle the medical procedure, accommodation, airport/hotel/clinic transfers, patient coordination services, nurse hotel visits, and aftercare support. The company acts as an intermediary between patients and contracted healthcare providers (hospitals and clinics), earning fees for coordination, facilitation, and associated services. Patients pay deposits to confirm bookings and complete full payment prior to consultation and pre-operative tests. The company also offers optional add-ons including medical travel insurance partnerships with Global Protective Solutions and Medical Travel Shield, for which they presumably receive referral fees or commissions.
