It’s not just cost though. Thanks to my employer, my wife and I have amazing insurance in the US that covers a ton. However even so, she chooses to fly back to Korea for healthcare. I didn’t understand it at first, but then I witnessed the Korean healthcare system in action and I’m an convert now. Here in the US, you get sent to many different places for every procedure ranging from the initial doctor consult to getting blood drawn to getting an X-ray etc.ep etc., all punctuated by waiting. In Korea, she went to one doctor and everything was handled on the same day in by the same doctor, or at least within the same building. A process that would take weeks or even months in the American system might take a few days or a week or two in Korea.
