Remember this. This is actually a very good reason to emigrate from the US, even if you have to pay US taxes for life.
If you look at the predicted life expectancy of an American in 2045 for example, you would know it is time to be "making plans". You would also know that the price differential on salaries between America and other places in the world as a person in STEM is not worth the payoff long-term. Plus, you cannot put a price on your health. This is just one eerie statistic, for example: Medical error—the third leading cause of death in the US https://www.bmj.com/content/353/bmj.i2139 https://www.bmj.com/content/353/bmj.i2139 You cannot evade a statistic like that by going to the "best hospitals" or by receiving the "best healthcare" in America, or by having "good insurance".
By the way, I did become a dual US|EU citizen over American healthcare, as somebody who is chronically ill with 2 rare immune-mediated neurological diseases affecting my peripheral nervous system, plus type 1 diabetes (autoimmune and insulin dependent).
