A year ago I left my job that had a good health care plan. I decided to try and enter a semi-retirement phase at the age of 59, but I'm still working full-time in Singapore, and yes, I'm American As worried about health care coverage as anyone, I picked up insurance called "International Health Insurance" based out of Denmark, which is a company owned by BUPA (from Britain). It's actually very good coverage, and costs me $2,500 per year. It covers me for 1.8 million per year and a $1400 deductible. It's international, so if I get hospitalized in any county, including the US, I'm covered. I'm guaranteed for life, or at least until Medicare kicks in at 65.
I'm always curious why US retirees always seem to restrict themselves to insurance companies based in the US. I really believe it's less expensive if you consider European providers. Just a thought.
