Hey all. I grew up half in the US and then half in England. I’m a UK citizen and have a national insurance card, but I have a US passport rather than UK and tend to travel on that especially having lived in the US more recently.
My question is, I’m about to leave the US for Central America, and I am trying to figure out the smartest approach to health insurance in case of emergency. I am in my 30s and healthy, and Costa Rican healthcare is notoriously high quality and affordable out of pocket, but if one day I were to suddenly be diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer or get in an accident where I needed/preferred to fall back on a home country for healthcare, would I be able to move back to the UK for it? What would I need considering I haven’t visited a doctor in the UK for years (e.g. proof of address to register with a new doctor)?
The US alternative is to pay hundreds of dollars every month in premiums for sub par health insurance just in case I needed it at some point, and then usually another nearly $10000 out of pocket if you need to use it for something expensive/major.
