Hi,
I want to get some help to get my parents to US. My brother and I, only child of our parents are US citizens. My father has liver cirrhosis and my mother is a cancer patient. There are no one to take of them back in Nepal. They are 78 and 74 years old. How can I bring them to US knowing the fact that liver cirrhosis has no cure. Any insight will be deeply appreciated.
Thank you.

You can certainly petition them, now health care very much depends on your finances their finances and which State you live in.

US does not have a common system, lets say you move your aged Parents to California where they get Medicaid for free how is that not better?

Free is not necessarily better quality.

Many hospitals just do a lot of unnecessary tests, milk the insurance, including Medicaid. In the end, the health of many of these patients do not improve. 

The United States has a broken healthcare system.

Does Haiti have a system

 

Doubt Nepal has much of a one

 

These parents seem to have serious medical issues.

I initially stated that there a lot of other countries that provide provide more affordable and better health care than the United States.

Have you ever heard of Belgium, Germany, Norway, France, Japan, Switzerland, etc?

 

I did not say that the United States is the worst. However, they are certainly not the best.

California does have a potentially good reparation plan to the tune of $1.2 million each for it's Black residents.

You can also add our neighbor to the north. Canada has a better healthcare system than the United States.

Canada well sponsoring parents is tricky, do not think it is impossible, but not a given.

 

Some Countries like Australia and NZ have a medical requirement that they obviously would not pass.

 

Belgium Switzerland etc I simply do not know, well I know they are all different.

Which is why I am Transracial and identify as a California resident.
