Which Euro countries are best 4 US retirees to relocate & purchase healthcare?

9 years ago
My husband and I are retired. He gets Medicare and Social Security, but I'm not old enough yet. However, I do have some health issues. Private healthcare has become too expensive for us, and we don't qualify for subsidies under Obamacare. We've travelled extensively in Europe and would love to relocate, but everything we read talks about the difficulties of obtaining residency visas in most European countries and qualifying for healthcare purchase. Could any expats living in Europe give some advice on this? We're most interested in Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, but would consider other countries as well. Thank you!
