Worst scenario - you will pay including personal assets, but you may consider to forme an offshore entity

Re: Medical Tourism Company startup

I have good news and bad news.

The good news is that properly done, incorporation will protect the owners of a corporation from personal liability beyond the loss of their investment into the corporation. You must observe all corporate formalities and you must not provide any basis upon which the corporate veil may be pierced.

Now the bad news. First, I'm not licensed to practice in Thailand, so I can't tell you much about laws concerning corporations in Thailand, and can't tell you what they may require there. That's not really the bad news, though. The bad news is that I suspect what you plan to do is not legal. You plan to market, in the US, the services of doctors who are probably not licensed to practice in the US, and you are also potentially marketing procedures that have not been approved by the FDA. This is very different from the Canadian pharmacies, which are simply marketing FDA approved drugs, filling prescriptions provided by doctors licensed here.

If a patient dies or is injured because of an act that the court finds to be a crime, there should be no problem getting at your personal assets.

Before you proceed with this plan, speak with a lawyer who understands the laws governing medical practice, to find out if it is legal. I strongly suspect it is not, but you may want to confirm with someone who focuses on that field.
