Americans: Pay attention the the above comment and take it to heart.
I urge you to, as a dual national of both the United States and the European Union (Croatia). I am also on Medicare, as I am disabled.
One would be foolish to underestimate this comment and the overall situation it describes. It is unwinnable.
You can very easily end up paying a fortune every single year during your lifetime ($20,000/year-$100,000/year) for medications that are covered under Medicare Part D, due to a clause called Medicare Part D catastrophic coverage levels, just so you can stay alive. There are people in the top 1% that cannot afford these sorts of costs during retirement.
To top it off, the third leading cause of death in the United States is preventable medical errors. If you do not believe me, Google it. You can go to the very best institutions, hospitals, and doctors, but nobody can evade a statistic like that. The problem is just way to invasive and ingrained in to how we give healthcare in the United States.
If you want to stay alive long-term, then the best thing to do is to emigrate, particularly to a European Union country. They never discriminate on the basis of health status (including the cost of your healthcare or care), but you do have to be able to work to stay on a visa to eventually acquire citizenship. Obviously western or northern Europe is more desirable, but anywhere in the European Union is a step up in quality from the chaos of our system.
