living in the US? not exactly cheap but the healthcare.gov site is probably your best bet outside of using cash doctors or foreign ones

Thanks. Yes in the US.i would imagine this is something to consider when planning ER. It might actually prevent ER

We got a policy through our state's healthcare exchange.  It took a bit of doing as the system was going through startup challenges, but once the administrivia was sorted out it was pretty easy to set up.  If your taxable income is low enough, you might even get a subsidy toward the cost of the policy.
