Healthcare is one of the biggest unknowns for Americans considering life abroad.
This section looks at how medical care works in practice, not in theory.

The guides focus on real costs, access to care, and quality differences between countries,
using the US healthcare system as a reference point.

Covered in this section

• Doctor and hospital costs abroad
• Insurance versus paying cash
• Healthcare quality and safety
• Common concerns for Americans overseas

The aim is to remove uncertainty and help you understand what to expect when you actually need care.
