15k/month is a lot. Really a lot.
Have you considered the possibility of medical tourism, to say India? Any particular treatment/procedure that really requires you costly American doctors, and can't be done elsewhere?
Or maybe closer like Canada? Even out of pocket you might save more in Canada healthcare.
that isn't how reality works.
it's not medical care. it's eldercare.
that isn't how any of this works. You don't ship people off to other countries like they are cattle. Jesus.
So what are you paying 15k per month for if not full care and dumpint her in an elderly home?
Normal people (not just old people, young too) visit other cities/states/countries for treatment/education/work/tourism.
None of that turns them into cattle (or Jesus), as far as I have seen.
