Retiring Abroad? Lakeside Medical Group's
Checklist for a Healthy Transition

• Understanding the Healthcare Landscape
• Embarking on a new chapter of life in a foreign

  also translated into the local language.
  Additionally, delve into the visa requirements
  related to healthcare access, understanding the
  legalities that govern your ability to seek
  medical assistance in the host country.
