I know of and have heard of a lot of Americans who cross borders to get their medicine, and even for medical procedures. Obviously the care is better here in the States, but I also know of a Mexican Heart Surgeon who has been flown to Japan to operate on a patient there so care down there can't be that bad. And it is definitely cheaper. I figure the Cost here has something to do with School loans as well, since most Doctors probably have a huge amount of debt after after they graduate.

@brianphobos For me, I am of the kind that if it can happen to me, it will. So I would suck it up and pay, especially if you are living on the edge or slow down and not be so adventurous. A broken leg, and you are usually in and out, but can you imagine something that keeps you there 2 or 3 days? That bill would be insane!
Or be like me and try to win the lottery, that I don't play....lol.
