My wife's Mom and Aunt are in their eighties. I have tried to find health insurance
in case we are able to bring them here for their last years. It seems that health
insurance is geared for those who have medicare and that, if they come as permanent
residents, they will not be eligible to BUY medicare for 5 years.
So what do we do in the meantime? We have resources to buy health care and insurance
and are not looking for a free ride, but nothing seems to be available.
Any suggestions?
thanks, Charles.
