A writer from the Associated Press is interested in talking to people who decide to retire
abroad for reasons related to affordable health care. He is also interested to hear about other reasons why you chose to retire abroad. If you would be interested to speak with him and possibly be written about in his article, please send an email to
Joshua Wood at: [email protected].

I want to move to Pakistan from the USA for many reasons, and affordable health care is one of them. In the USA, if you are very rich, then you don't care about healthcare costs. If you are very poor or pretend to be poor, you get Medicaid, and you don't pay. But for the rest of us, healthcare is a joke. You pay, pay, pay, and still don't feel better. You never know what a doctor will charge you until after you've seen them. This is the only thing you have to purchase without knowing the price. Its ridiculous. And every single time, there are surprise charges on the bill that you never knew you would get. Doctors in the USA are dying for money, so in the process they are eager to cut you (surgery) any chance they get. They want to buy a bigger house, a new car, want to go on a vacation, or are bitter for the hardship during their residency, and need to let your blood for quick money. We had a misdiagnosis for a family member by at least 3 doctors. But our family member went to Pakistan, had a minor surgery, no organ removal, and feels fine now.
