Is it reasonable to go to Mexico or Central America for medical work? Feedback on the forum is that traveling for dental work is worthwhile. How about medical?
Currently healthy without health insurance. Have some retirement savings (under $10,000) in case of emergency. Yet even with paying cash, the $10,000 wound not go far in the US.
I can pay for local doctor visits that are under $100. However if something major comes up and I am conscious, I think it could be more reasonable to travel to Mexico or Central America for treatment and hospitalization paying cash there.
Please let me know, from your experience, if it's reasonable to go to Mexico or Central America for surgery, the hospital, etc. Thank you in advance for your answers so a plan can be made.
