Specialty care in Monterrey doesn't connect back to Texas providers
Summary
Patients who travel to Monterrey's JCI-accredited specialty hospitals lack a coordinated link back to Texas providers. No shared record or referral channel exists, so specialty findings don't reach the home care team.
Nuevo León (Monterrey) is a major medical-tourism hub with JCI-accredited specialty centers drawing patients from Texas. As with other border corridors, there is no referral or record-exchange channel back to the patient's Texas provider, so specialist findings and treatment plans don't reach the home care team for ongoing management.
