Remember, you’re retiring, which means you are generally putting yourself in a higher risk category when it comes to your health. Sure, you may be healthy today, but what about tomorrow. Remember, this is retirement, and understanding what can happen to you in the future and where you may be can drastically affect your future. I’m so much more than a realtor. You learn in areas like Costa Rica that people depend on you to help them with so many other parts of their move. It is hard to move to a new country and I try to make it easier.
Medical treatment is of course something that is on everyone’s mind. If you currently are under medical treatment, whether it means you take a medication for high blood pressure, have diabetes, or maybe even had a heart attack, you may want to stick closer to the San Jose area. There are both public and private hospitals in San Jose.
The great thing about Costa Rica is that the cost of medical expenses is low, so be sure to take advantage of that. Insurance is available, but you must be a citizen. To get insurance, you can either purchase a private plan that covers most or you can be involved with the socialized medicine plan. Be prepared for long lines if you go with the government options.
You also can get great dental cares in Costa Rica, there are so many dentists and they are extremely affordable. You can get many procedures done that cost a fraction of what they would in the United States. Remember, there is no fluoride in the water though, which can cause many problems and deterioration of the teeth.
Honestly, it shouldn’t be an issue to deal with medical care in Costa Rica, there are all kinds of great ways to get treatment. If you are worried about it in the least, I’ll help put your mind at ease.
